IRONSCALES Expands Threat Assessment Capabilities; Launches Email Security’s First Phishing Emulator

Security teams can automatically test current anti-phishing defenses against real and trending phishing attacks, in just minutes, with new self-service technology from IRONSCALES

IRONSCALES, the pioneer of self-learning email security, announced another industry’s first with Phishing Emulator. Available to both current and prospective customers, this fully automated solution enables security professionals to evaluate their organization’s email security defenses by relaunching real-world, unmodified phishing attacks built to bypass secure email gateways and authentication protocols. Users can now emulate real-world phishing attacks to see weak points in their existing email security infrastructure in just minutes.

Traditional breach and attack simulators (BAS) almost always apply fictitious and outdated phishing scenarios. Unfortunately, this leaves organizations further exposed with a false sense of security around how well existing email security tools and protocols actually work. To address this hidden risk, Emulator automatically deploys real-word email phishing attacks, including business email compromise, impersonation and spoofing, ransomware and other malware, fake login pages and other phishing attack techniques, to help discover security technology gaps in near real time.

“With Phishing Emulator™, we are able to constantly test our technical controls and review any gaps,” says Elis Shlomo, Head of Global Security at Netafim. “IRONSCALES is continuously innovating and that strengthens our confidence in utilizing their technology as they are always thinking a step ahead.”

“Many organizations put a lot of time and effort into training and retraining their employees on anti-phishing methods, but then overlook the importance of testing their technical email security defenses,” says Eyal Benishti, IRONSCALES Founder and CEO. “It is no longer enough to test your email security infrastructure against threats from last month. Emulator plays a critical role in helping to test the effectiveness of your email security infrastructure right now, with current threats.”
