Find out how your team responds to a suspicious request

A phishing simulation is a test message sent as part of an organisation's security-awareness programme. It creates an opportunity to practise spotting an unexpected request without waiting for a real incident.

OutPhish brings scenario selection, scheduling, interaction results and follow-up learning into one platform. Start with a small group, check that the test behaves as expected, and use what you learn to plan the next round.

If you are choosing between testing and introductory learning, read about employee phishing training or explore the free awareness course.

What to review in a phishing simulation platform

Use your trial to assess how the workflow fits your organisation.

Scenario relevance

Choose messages that resemble the kinds of requests your employees need to evaluate.

Scheduling

Plan recurring practice at a frequency appropriate for your team and its workload.

Employee feedback

Check how missed warning signs are explained and what the participant sees after a test.

Results and reporting

Review recorded interactions and use the available reports to support your training decisions.

Email delivery

Coordinate test delivery with your IT provider and check how your security tools handle simulated messages.

Ongoing learning

Connect test findings to a clear action: a lesson, a process reminder or another opportunity to practise.

How an OutPhish simulation works

Prepare the test, review the response and turn the findings into useful follow-up.

AI analysing business context for phishing tests

Prepare your organisation and participants

Add the people included in your authorised training programme. OutPhish uses AI and organisation context to help create relevant scenarios. Review your test and coordinate delivery with the person responsible for your email environment.

Realistic phishing email templates mimicking popular services

Send a simulated workplace message

Use test messages that reflect the decisions staff make at work: opening a shared document, responding to an account notice or checking an unexpected invoice. Start with a pilot to check delivery.

Explain the missed warning signs

When someone interacts with a simulated phishing link, feedback creates a teaching opportunity. Reinforce the specific checks that would help with a similar request in everyday work.

Build a phishing-testing programme you can learn from

Start with a defined group

Choose participants and a scenario that fits their work. Tell staff how to report a suspicious message and who they can contact if they are unsure.

Check delivery before interpreting results

Your email gateway and link-scanning tools may interact with test messages. Run a pilot and review the available results in that context before drawing conclusions about employee behaviour.

Review patterns, not just a single click

A missed warning sign can point to unclear instructions, a convincing scenario or a need for practice. Compare results alongside the training delivered and any changes to your testing approach.

Keep the next step specific

For an invoice scenario, revisit how payment changes are verified. For a document-sharing scenario, practise reaching the document through the usual application instead of an unexpected link.

Use employee security training to support the learning between tests. Teams handling payments may also find our pages for law firms, accountants and bookkeepers and real estate agencies useful.

Questions about automated phishing simulations

It records interactions with a test message, such as opens or link clicks, where supported by the platform. Those results describe the test; they do not provide a complete measure of a person's judgement or your organisation's security.

OutPhish supports scheduled phishing testing. Review the scheduling options in your account and choose a cadence that gives your team time to learn between tests.

They can. Security gateways may block messages or inspect links automatically. Coordinate with your IT provider, run a pilot and consider that behaviour when reviewing results.

The interaction creates an opportunity for feedback about the warning signs in the message. Use it to explain what to check next time and reinforce your organisation's reporting process.

No. Simulations test responses to messages sent to participants. The free course teaches phishing awareness through lessons and activities without requiring a business simulation campaign.
