Phishing Assessments
Understand your organization’s susceptibility to a phishing campaign by completing
a comprehensive assessment with Bridewell.
Our assessments follow the same process as a real-life phishing campaign to provide an accurate simulation of
how your policies, procedures and people would respond to an attack.
The Importance of Phishing Assessment
Phishing is a leading threat, with increasingly sophisticated techniques targeting critical business information.
- Building a Culture of Awareness – To combat phishing, organisations must foster a culture of awareness that educates employees on phishing risks and implements effective procedures.
- Engaging Employees – Achieving this without making staff feel tested or singled out is challenging but essential for engaging them in training and ensuring robust security outcomes.

Phishing Assessment FAQs
The purpose of the phishing or social engineering assessment is to evaluate an organisation’s ability to detect and respond to different types of attacks. These assessments can help them identify weaknesses in their security posture and processess and take steps to improve their defenses and responses.
Social engineering is one of the most overlooked, and arguably the most dangerous security threats that an organisation can face. In the context of cybersecurity, social engineering tactics are used to deceive or manipulate employees within an organisation to divulge confidential or sensitive information for fraudulent purposes.
There are many benefits to conducting a phishing assessment, including: 1. Identifying potential vulnerabilities in your organization’s email system that could be exploited by attackers. 2. Determining whether your employees are susceptible to phishing attacks and if they are, what type of attacks are they most likely to fall for. 3. Educating your employees about the dangers of phishing attacks and how to avoid them.
A phishing assessment should be conducted at least once a year and tailored to meet current organizational maturity and reflect real sector or industry threats. The frequency of assessments will depend on the organization’s size, industry, and risk profile.
