Create a Behavior-based Simulation
Behavior-based Phishing Simulations follow a simple concept: If you manage to recognize easy phishing templates, we’ll send you harder ones. And if you are good at spotting those, too, we’ll make it really tough. This keeps users engaged!
You can choose which templates are included. Make sure they fit your organization well and try to select as many as possible. If you select only a few templates for each difficulty, at some point the simulated phishing mails will include repetitions, which lowers the learning effect.
Unlike Basic and Targeted Simulations, Behavior-based Simulations have no specified end date.
Note that you need to have an active SCIM connection to use behavior-based simulations. This includes our HRIS integrations through Kombo as well as direct Azure/Entra setups.
Setup demo
Details
Each user is assigned a score that develops throughout a campaign based on their interaction with simulated phishing emails. The better users perform, the harder the templates they receive are.
Users with a low score receive 2 emails per month, based on easy templates.
Users with a medium or high score receive 1 email per month, with a corresponding difficulty.
The system tries to avoid repeating templates where possible and will only use a template again if there are no unused templates left in the given difficulty level. We therefore recommend selecting as many templates as possible for behavior-based simulations - provided that they suit your organization.
