Teach Yourself to Phish: The Strategy Behind Phishing Simulations | Huntress

This piece promotes a human-centric security strategy built on monthly awareness training and frequent phishing simulations, explaining the psychology behind social engineering and setting goals to build resilience (exposure therapy, focusing on repeat clickers, and accelerating reporting); it shares internal results from successive monthly simulations that increased difficulty, observed transient spikes in clicks followed by declines, and highlighted rapid peer reporting, concluding with guidance to vary lures, think like an attacker, and coach failures with empathy.
