Human error – is that the biggest security risk in your organization too?

We recently carried out a phishing simulation for one of our clients, and the result? Yes – it turned out to be a surprisingly high number of clicks on the fake email.

This is an alarming result that says something important: security awareness is a perishable skill. Investing in technology alone isn’t enough—without regular training, simulations, and follow-up, employees easily become vulnerable to increasingly sophisticated attacks.

So, what do we learn from this?

Many users underestimate how realistic phishing emails have become—and it’s precisely that credibility that makes them so dangerous. The safety of well-established routines can sometimes create a false sense of security—a sense that, in the worst case, leads to devastating mistakes. Because in reality, it often only takes one single click for a threat to get in.

But our goal is never to catch anyone out. Instead, we want to create understanding, drive change, and build stronger resilience within the organization. That’s why phishing simulations are such an effective tool to achieve exactly that.
