PROTECT YOUR ORGANIZATION WITH PHISHME SECURITY SOLUTIONS FROM COFENSE
Condition your workforce against today’s latest threats and transform them into your front line of defense.
Empower Users
Email is still the most common vector for threat actors. Employees must be conditioned to spot and report email threats immediately.
Leveraging data from our PDC (Phishing Detection Center) and Intelligence team, we help awareness teams to build simulations based on the latest active threats that are bypassing SEGs. When attuned to the latest email threats, your end users can become your front line of defense, feeding real threats to your SOC and improving your security posture.
End-to-End Email Security Built to Stop Threats.
Defend your organization with our complete suite of email security solutions.
Measure and Improve Resiliency
The most important part of your phishing defense is reporting and resiliency rates. If users don’t report emails, the SOC is clueless to the threats affecting the organization. Our data shows that you can boost reporting and help users become active defenders by adding Cofense Reporter™ to your inbox. With powerful reporting and dashboards, we allow your Awareness Team to quickly understand and adapt to users to improve their resiliency rates over time.

Frequently Asked Questions
Phishing awareness is more than being aware of what a phishing email may look like. Employees need to understand the different types of phishing, how attacks can be engineered, and the consequences of clicking on a malicious link, responding to an email with the requested information or opening a file.
Phishing training for employees is one of the most effective ways to strengthen your company´s defenses against malware, ransomware, data loss, and Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks.
Moreover, when your users report threats, your company can receive reciprocal information about phishing attacks found elsewhere. Such information can be delivered in Machine-Readable Threat Intelligence (MRTI) format, so it can be fed directly into existing security mechanisms (i.e. malicious URL detection systems), which update your technically driven online defenses against malware, data loss, and ransomware attacks.
One of the best ways to raise phishing awareness is to send simulated phishing emails to employees and stage attacks. Spear phishing and BEC attacks can be highly refined and personal. To make simulation training more impactful, include spear phishing awareness training by crafting messages that are addressed to an individual or specific group. Employ the personal and professional information you have on file to better simulate real phishing attacks that utilize social engineering. Sending a phishing email simulation containing a fake invoice query is simpler but may lack the relevant content that will make it an effective educational tool for every department.
The goals of phishing email simulation should be to build employee confidence, encourage communication, and establish habits that mitigate phishing attacks. Successfully using simulations is just one part of a larger phishing awareness campaign.

A phishing awareness training program can be part of on-boarding, regular training, or done randomly to test the phishing security awareness of individuals or groups. The most effective programs will be thorough and ongoing.
Your phishing training should feature feedback, monitoring, and reporting.
Feedback should go something like this: “Here’s what you did right and here’s what you did wrong,” noting the reasons why. This lets employees and senior management discover both their weaknesses and the areas they need to improve upon.
Using a security awareness LMS allows you to do this at scale.
