Vishing Training for Employees
Vishing can be defined as a combination of ‘voice’ and ‘phishing’. It is a social engineering attack where the attacker’s sole purpose behind launching a vishing attack is to gather the receiver's personal information at the other end.
Vishing training involves imparting knowledge about vishing and putting them through situations that can help them gain the required skills to tackle a vishing attack.
Why Vishing Awareness Training is Important?
Vishing is one of the easiest attack vectors that can be used for credential harvesting. It can also result in malware delivery by combining it with email or SMS. Often threat actors lure victims into clicking or downloading malicious links or attachments they send over either email or text message during the phone call. This can result in ransomware attacks, identity theft, data theft, etc.
Vishing Training and simulation is an important aspect of the overall cyber security training for employees as vishing calls have become very realistic nowadays. In the event of a vishing attack, your employees can unknowingly leak some very critical organizational information. Vishing simulation can help employees get an experience of a real-life vishing attack and can therefore be helpful in developing the desired response in this case.
How our Vishing Awareness and Simulation Works
Our vishing awareness and simulation comes as a combination of simulation campaigns, awareness content, and analysis features. This follows the process given below:
- Select a pre-recorded script based on your requirements
- Launch a vishing attack simulation campaign on the selected group of employees
- Analyze the vulnerability score of each employee or group after the simulated attack
- Impart knowledge to employees through videos, articles, advisories, and infographics
- Evaluate the progress of learning among your employees through gamified assessment
- Get a detailed report from the simulation run on each department of the organization

2. How to avoid vishing?
Vishing can be avoided by undergoing regularized training and simulation cycles and gaining requisite knowledge about the tricks used in a vishing call to identify such a call easily.
3. What is a vishing attack used for?
Vishing attacks are generally used for credential harvesting. Often threat actors lure victims into clicking or downloading malicious links or attachments they send over either email or text message during the phone call. This can result in ransomware attacks, identity theft, data theft, etc.
