I had this exact same attack in my previous company, and it spread quite rapidly.

2. For now attacks are very generic, but will soon be sector-based and department-based.
3. Yes for sure it's probably worth adapting the pace of the attacks depending on the level of the employees.
Thanks for the kind words!
I have a fun story with Wombat: I tried to use the product in my previous company (100 employees), had 4 different calls, with 4 different sales persons, during 2 months. At the end they just forgot about me.
2. Whitelist the IP address we use to send the emails.
3. Activate the "phishing simulation" module.
4. Wait and see.
Takes 5 minutes.
I heard once you try the "free service" they call you daily to sign you up for the paid plan.
It's still worth trying though!
2. I love the idea to actually make the employees create their own attacks, but seems a bit hard to do and pretty much time consuming for a company.
What I look for in a name:
1. If I say it out loud, you know how to write it.
2. If I say it out loud today, you remember it tomorrow.
On that 2 criteria, Riot works quite well I think.
I called them just right after that, and I have to say they've been great so far. We agreed I would pay for a dedicated IP, and they now fully support Riot. And having a dedicated IP is actually better, because you can now remove the unexpected warning on Gmail.
I wouldn't be surprised if we get a major data leak caused by COVID-19 in the coming days.
PS: great username by the way.
1. From Gophish: you need to be technical and you need at least a week off to prepare the attacks. With Riot, you can be sending attacks in a matter of minutes.
2. From Knowbe4, …: those are products made for enterprise companies, that are trying somehow to adapt to smaller companies. Riot is doing the opposite: it was built with smaller companies in mind.
Overall, I think there's a huge need today for product-centric cybersecurity companies, where most of the big players are sales-centric companies.
