Benchmarking is the only true way to see how your company stacks up when it comes to security awareness. To help you in this effort, Barracuda PhishLine offers a growing catalog of pre-packaged benchmarking campaigns.
All benchmarking campaigns consist of a simulated phishing email and landing page that targets employees in your address book. Benchmarking campaigns are categorized under the Benchmark Content Group Category. Once the campaign concludes, reporting allows you to see how many of your users engaged with the email and to what extent. You also receive insights into how your employees compare with others within and outside of your industry.
This article describes the available benchmark campaigns.
- For instructions on setting up and running a benchmark campaign, refer to Creating and Running a Benchmark Campaign.
