2023 Gone Phishing Tournament Results Are In!
What is the Gone Phishing TournamentTM?
Fortra's Terranova Security 2023 Gone Phishing Tournament is a free annual real-world phishing simulation training event that helps organizations and security leaders better understand high-risk areas, compare phishing performance, such as accurate phishing clickthrough rates, and establish data-driven goals with accurate benchmarking statistics for end user behaviors.
Rounding out Fortra's Advanced Email Security portfolio of products, Terranova Security helps global organizations create security-aware cultures that prioritize strong data protection with engaging, customizable courses and game-style modules that help employees detect and avoid prevalent cyber threats. Security awareness training and phishing simulations are an important part of a well-rounded, robust security program and are another step in an enterprise's effort to fortify legacy security defenses, or even next-gen cloud-based security solutions.
But Our IT Managers and the SOC Knows When It's a Phish...
An astounding 78% of participants say that cybersecurity is the job of their company's IT department, and 52% say their job has nothing to do with cybersecurity. You'd be surprised by how many employees click phish without realizing it (the statistic still remains that approximately 1 out of every 10 employees clicks on a phishing email link), and often those who think they are aware of or attuned to these types of subversive accounts are the ones who actually fall for them. But really everyone in any organization that wants to measure their phishing click rates and other benchmarks against other participants in the same industry, region, and size range can and should participate!
So Why Would I Register?
By basing benchmarking data on a single phishing template deployed within a pre-determined period, the Gone Phishing Tournament provides organizations worldwide with the actionable insights they need to establish and grow a culture of cybersecurity awareness.
