A phishing simulation shows how your workforce reacts to a convincing lure — before a real attacker finds out. We design authorized campaigns tailored to your industry and tooling, measuring not just who clicks, but who reports, and how your controls perform.
Findings translate directly into targeted awareness training and technical hardening.
Our phishing simulations are authorized, realistic campaigns tailored to your industry and tooling. We measure click and credential-entry rates, but also the metrics that matter more — reporting rates and control effectiveness — and translate the results into targeted awareness training and technical hardening. Repeat campaigns track improvement over time, turning a one-off test into a measurable reduction in human risk.
Phishing remains the single most common initial-access technique, and a realistic simulation shows how your workforce reacts before a real attacker finds out. Click rates matter, but reporting rates and control effectiveness matter more.
Authorized phishing simulations tailored to your industry translate directly into targeted awareness training and technical hardening, measurably lowering your human attack surface over time.
What we test
Tailored phishing lure design
Click and credential-entry tracking
Reporting-rate measurement
Email control & filter effectiveness
Landing-page & payload simulation
Repeat-campaign trend analysis
Common vulnerabilities we uncover
High click and credential-entry rates
Low phishing-report rates
Ineffective email filtering controls
Susceptibility to targeted, industry-specific lures
Weak links between awareness and behavior
Lack of repeat measurement and trend tracking
Our methodology
Scoping & rules of engagement. We agree objectives, targets and boundaries for your phishing simulation, so testing is safe, authorized and focused on what matters to your business.
Reconnaissance & mapping. We enumerate the full attack surface in scope, building a complete picture before any exploitation begins.
Manual exploitation. Our senior testers chain vulnerabilities by hand — going far beyond automated scanners — to prove real, demonstrable impact.
Analysis & reporting. Every finding is triaged, risk-rated with CVSS and written up with a copy-paste reproduction and clear remediation.
Remediation support & free retest. We support your team through the fixes and retest the remediated issues to confirm they are genuinely closed.
Tools & techniques
We run authorized phishing campaigns using a purpose-built simulation platform, with lures tailored to your industry and tooling. We track click, credential-entry and reporting rates, test email-filtering effectiveness, and benchmark results over repeat campaigns to measure improvement, translating outcomes into targeted awareness training and technical hardening.

What’s included in your report
Every phishing simulation engagement concludes with a comprehensive, board-ready report and a working session to walk your team through it. Your report includes:
An executive summary with overall risk posture for non-technical stakeholders
Detailed technical findings, each with a step-by-step, copy-paste reproduction
CVSS v3.1 severity ratings and business-impact context for every issue
Prioritized, actionable remediation guidance your engineers can apply directly
A complimentary retest to confirm fixes and update finding status
A formal attestation letter for customers, auditors and compliance programs
Standards & frameworks
NIST SP 800-115MITRE ATT&CK (phishing)security awareness best practices
Outcomes you can expect
After your phishing simulation, you will have clear, evidence-based visibility into your real security risk — not a scanner’s guesswork. You will know exactly which weaknesses an attacker could exploit, what the business impact would be, and the precise steps to fix them in priority order. Teams use our findings to close critical gaps, satisfy customer and regulator security requirements, and demonstrate due diligence to their board. With a complimentary retest included, you also get documented proof that the issues are genuinely resolved.
Engagement details & logistics
Every phishing simulation starts with a short, no-obligation scoping call to understand your goals, environment and constraints, followed by a fixed-price proposal and a clear statement of work. Most engagements are delivered fully remotely, with on-site work arranged where it genuinely adds value. Throughout testing we maintain an agreed communication cadence and escalate any critical, high-impact finding to you immediately rather than waiting for the final report. All work is performed under a signed NDA with strict data-handling controls, using safe, non-disruptive techniques and carefully coordinated rules of engagement to protect your production systems. On completion you receive your report and a walkthrough session, followed by a complimentary retest once your fixes are in place. Typical engagements are booked one to three weeks in advance, and urgent or pre-deadline testing can often be accommodated — just ask at hi@agentoffense.com.
Why organizations choose AgentOffense
Our phishing simulation is delivered by senior offensive-security engineers who test the way real attackers do — manually, creatively and with a relentless focus on proving genuine, demonstrable impact. Here is what sets our engagements apart:
Manual, exploit-driven testing that chains vulnerabilities the way a real attacker would, going far beyond what automated scanners can find.
Reproducible proof for every finding, with copy-paste reproduction steps your engineers can follow and independently verify.
Honest severity calibration so you invest in fixing what genuinely matters and avoid wasting effort on false positives and noise.
Clear, business-focused reporting that speaks to engineers and executives alike, tying every issue to real-world impact.
A complimentary retest included, so you get documented proof that your fixes actually close the attack path.
Responsible, collaborative delivery with a named point of contact and secure handling of all data throughout the engagement.

How much does Phishing Simulation cost?
Every phishing simulation is scoped and priced individually, so you pay for exactly the coverage you need — with no hidden extras. After a short, no-obligation scoping call we send a fixed-price quote, usually within one business day, with clear deliverables, a firm timeline and a complimentary retest included. The price of your phishing simulation depends on the size and complexity of the target and the depth of testing required, so you always know the cost up front before any work begins.
