Security awareness training provider KnowBe4 has launched Phishing Reply Test (PRT), a web-based tool to help organizations determine if their employees will respond to phishing emails.
PRT tests employees on common scenarios for targeted phishing attacks, according to KnowBe4. It allows an organization to select and send an email template to employees and phish for responses.
In addition, PRT provides insights into the number of employees who fall victim to a simulated phishing attack, KnowBe4 said. This helps an organization determine the best course of action to teach its employees how to combat phishing attacks.
PRT is now available free of charge.
