Automated social engineering training
Training that follows the attack, not the calendar.
Static awareness videos teach employees to spot attacks in the abstract. Vyvern runs realistic, authorized social engineering simulations across every channel, then automatically assigns each person training matched to the exact attack they missed.
How automated social engineering training works
Simulate the real attack
AI agents research each employee and run authorized social engineering simulations across email, social media, SMS, and voice — not a generic template everyone recognizes.
Assign training automatically
When someone slips, they are enrolled in a module that replays the exact attack that fooled them — matched to the missed signal, the channel, and their role.
Measure human risk
Every result becomes a risk signal. Departments get a risk score, employees a susceptibility profile, and leaders a report mapped to SOC 2 and NIST CSF.
Repeat continuously
Instead of an annual training cycle, testing and remediation run continuously, so the program sharpens with every campaign and keeps pace with evolving tactics.
Frequently asked questions
- What is automated social engineering training?
- It is a program that runs realistic, authorized social engineering simulations automatically and then delivers targeted training based on each employee's response — rather than relying on scheduled, one-size-fits-all awareness videos. Vyvern uses AI agents to run the simulations across email, social media, SMS, and voice, and assigns remediation matched to the exact attack an employee missed.
- How is this different from traditional security awareness training?
- Traditional programs push the same static videos and recognizable phishing templates to everyone on a fixed schedule. Automated social engineering training tests people the way real attackers operate — personalized, multi-channel, and continuous — and only assigns training when it is actually needed, based on a real failure.
- Which channels does Vyvern test?
- Email (spear-phishing), social media (recruiter and DM pretexts), SMS (smishing), and voice (AI vishing calls). These are the channels attackers use to reach employees every day.
- Is it safe to run against employees?
- Yes. Every engagement is authorized and approval-gated: security leaders control targets, timing, and scope, and nothing reaches an employee without sign-off.
- Does it produce compliance evidence?
- Yes. Results are converted into risk scores and reporting mapped to frameworks like SOC 2 and NIST CSF, so the output goes straight to auditors.
