Reduce Phishing Risk
Phishing is responsible for more than 90% of successful cyber attacks globally. Most organisations have the technology to detect threats, but the weakest point remains the same: people. Phriendly Phishing’s phishing awareness training closes that gap with realistic simulations, personalised learning, and automated reporting that gives your team the skills to recognise and report phishing attacks before they cause damage.
What Is Phishing Awareness Training?
Phishing awareness training is a structured programme that teaches employees to identify phishing emails, suspicious links, and social engineering tactics used in real-world attacks. It goes beyond a one-off module. Effective training creates new habits through repeated practice, so the right response becomes instinctive rather than something people have to think about.
Phriendly Phishing combines automated phishing simulations with targeted micro-learning to deliver training that changes behaviour. It sits within a broader cybersecurity awareness training platform covering the full range of human risk management.

Phishing Simulation Features
The platform runs realistic, automated phishing simulations without requiring IT resources to manage them. Once connected to your directory, campaigns run on schedule, and results feed directly into your reporting dashboard.
- Email phishing simulations using templates based on real attack techniques
- Spear phishing campaigns tailored to specific roles, departments, or risk profiles
- Smishing simulations testing SMS-based phishing awareness
- Automated enrolment into targeted micro-lessons for anyone who interacts with a simulated phishing message
- Personalised learning paths that adapt based on each user’s behaviour and risk level
- Full campaign scheduling and management with no ongoing IT overhead
A 2025 LearnX Diamond Award for Best EdTech Innovation winner, Phriendly Phishing brings recognised training excellence to every simulation programme. Trusted by leading organisations including AFL, Gateway Bank, and Chorus.
QR Code Phishing Testing
QR code phishing, also known as quishing, is one of the fastest-growing attack vectors targeting workplaces. Attackers embed malicious URLs in QR codes that most email security tools cannot scan or block. Staff who would never click a suspicious link will scan a QR code without hesitation.
Phriendly Phishing is one of the few platforms offering built-in QR code phishing simulations alongside traditional email-based campaigns. This means your team is tested against the threats they actually face, not just the ones that were common five years ago.
QR code simulation results feed into the same reporting dashboard as all other campaign data, giving you a complete view of phishing susceptibility across attack types.
Reporting and Risk Tracking
Every simulation campaign generates detailed risk data at the individual, team, and organisational levels. The platform tracks phishing click rates, report rates, and training completion in real time, so you always have an accurate picture of your risk.
Risk dashboards are designed to be readable at every level. IT leads get granular user-level data for targeted follow-up. HR teams can track behaviour change over time. Leadership and board audiences get clear, plain-language summaries of organisational risk and programme progress.
Training records are fully exportable for audit, compliance, and insurance reporting. Australian-based infrastructure supports data residency requirements under the Privacy Act 1988.
The platform is part of a broader suite of phishing simulation and security awareness training solutions that cover the full range of human cyber risk.
Frequently Asked Questions
Simulations cover email phishing, spear phishing, smishing (SMS-based attacks), and QR code phishing. Templates are based on real attack techniques and updated regularly to reflect current threats. The platform also allows campaigns to be targeted by department, role, or individual risk level.
Most organisations are live within a few hours. The platform connects to your existing directory, and the first simulation campaign can be scheduled from day one. There is no need for a dedicated IT resource to set up or manage the programme.
Most phishing awareness programmes test staff only on email-based attacks. QR code phishing bypasses email security filters entirely and is harder for employees to identify as a threat. Phriendly Phishing’s QR code simulations test this specific gap, giving you data on a risk vector that most organisations are not measuring.
The platform provides real-time dashboards showing phishing susceptibility rates, training completion, and behaviour trends over time. Reports are available at the individual, team, and organisational levels. Summaries can be exported for board reporting, compliance audits, and cyber insurance documentation.
Phriendly Phishing is built around the “train not trick” philosophy. Rather than using shame or fear to motivate behaviour change, the platform delivers short, scenario-based lessons that are directly relevant to what employees encounter in their day-to-day work. Engagement rates are consistently higher than generic compliance training because the content feels real, not theoretical.
