PhishSkill
What it is
PhishSkill is a web-based security-awareness and phishing-simulation platform for organizations seeking to reduce human cyber risk. It runs authorized simulations through email and WhatsApp and measures employee responses. Short, targeted training is assigned based on risk profiles and simulation failures. Individual and departmental scores draw on simulation behavior, training engagement, and past vulnerability, while dashboards track phishing clicks, successful reports, and training progress. Teams can be entered manually or imported by CSV, with role-based permissions. AI-generated templates work with OpenAI, Anthropic, or Google Gemini; customers can use PhishSkill's AI on Premium or bring their own key on any plan. The managed cloud service requires no local installation. PhishSkill says it encrypts data at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS 1.2+, and hosts the service in the India region. Starter is free for 30 days, then billed per user monthly, with no amount listed. Premium is custom-priced with volume discounts. A 30-day trial is available, and Premium or enterprise pricing requires contacting the team.
