Corporations and public sector organizations can now assess their workforce's exposure to dangerous phishing attacks, which are escalating as social distancing requires most employees to work from home.

Managers can now characterize the weaknesses in their staff's ability to defend against phishing and online social engineering scams, thanks to "Can We Be Phished?", a new, freely available online assessment from Click Armor, the Continuous Cybersecurity Awareness Platform.

Phishing is the practice of sending malicious emails, supposedly from trusted senders, to induce people to reveal sensitive information such as passwords or credit card numbers, or to launch malware attacks on computer systems.

"Organizations are increasingly worried about their exposure to phishing threats coinciding with the sudden increase in the number of employees forced to work from home due to the pandemic. Scammers take advantage of people working outside their normal, secure environments to attack businesses and spread disinformation by exploiting peoples' anxiety about the situation," explains Click Armor CEO Scott Wright.

"The Click Armor platform is designed to arm individuals and businesses with the skills they need to identify and defend against these kinds of threats. This unique, free corporate assessment allows organizations to quickly and easily assess their exposure, based on the team's performance on a gamified phishing challenge."
