Phishing is one of the most consistently successful forms of online crime, as the method relies on fooling fallible humans rather than heavily secured computer systems; with Phishero, companies can assess how well their organization as a whole holds up against phishing attacks.
The scary thing about phishing for developers and security professional working in robust businesses is that, no matter how secure their infrastructure is, employees are always highly susceptible to simply clicking on a link that looks legitimate. Instead of relying on informational seminars and cautionary emails, Phishero lets organizations see how they would respond to an actual phishing attack. It simulates a convincing, sophisticated phishing campaign, and it lets security teams track the results to see where they can improve.
