Social Engineering Assessment
Authorised multi-channel simulations that measure how employees and operational teams respond to phishing, voice phishing, pretexting and related human-focused attacks.
Attackers increasingly exploit human psychology rather than purely technical flaws, leveraging trust, urgency, fear, curiosity and helpfulness to manipulate employees into compromising security. Modern campaigns are highly targeted, AI-assisted, multi-channel, and patient enough to build credibility before striking.
We combine realistic attack scenarios with testing across email, SMS, voice, physical access and collaboration platforms — then measure click rates, credential submission, reporting behaviour and detection speed across departments and roles.

Supported by our own threat-intelligence platform
Our pretexts are grounded in real exposure, not guesswork — because the underlying intelligence is ours and comes included with the engagement.
- OffSeq Breach , opens in a new tabExplore
Reveals which of your employees’ credentials are already leaked, so phishing scenarios mirror the exact accounts attackers would target.
- OffSeq Mirage , opens in a new tabExplore
Current phishing and threat intelligence helps keep scenarios relevant to lures and techniques observed in circulation.

Frequently asked questions
Will the assessment disrupt our business operations?
Campaign timing, target groups, communication paths and stop conditions are agreed in advance to limit disruption. The assessment is designed to measure behaviour and controls without interfering with normal work or collecting unnecessary personal data.
How do you ensure the assessment is conducted ethically?
We follow strict ethical guidelines including clear boundaries documented before testing begins, no storage of actual credentials, immediate disclosure of critical vulnerabilities, and respectful reporting that never shames individual employees.
Can the assessment focus on specific departments or roles?
Yes. Campaigns can be tailored by department, role or risk profile, subject to the agreed ethical and legal boundaries. This is useful for evaluating teams with access to sensitive systems or high-risk business processes without singling out employees for punitive assessment.
How do you measure success in social engineering assessments?
We measure indicators such as interaction and reporting rates, time to report, escalation quality and the effectiveness of technical controls. Repeated exercises can be compared with an agreed baseline to show whether behaviour and response are improving over time.
How do you handle employee concerns or anxiety after discovering it was a test?
We provide communication templates and guidance to help your organization explain the purpose and value of the assessment. We emphasize that the goal is organizational improvement rather than individual evaluation.
