## About empowsec

empowsec is a security awareness training platform that helps organizations measurably reduce human cyber risk. The platform combines interactive training courses, realistic phishing simulations, unique reply tracking technology, and automated remediation workflows in a single solution.

Unlike traditional security awareness tools that only track link clicks, empowsec uniquely detects when employees reply to simulated phishing emails — capturing one of the most dangerous employee behaviors that leads to business email compromise (BEC) attacks.

## Core capabilities

### Phishing simulations

- Segment campaigns by department, role, risk level, or custom groups
- Track opens, clicks, credential submissions, email replies, and user reports
- Schedule campaigns or launch them immediately
- A/B test different phishing lure strategies

### Reply tracking
- Proprietary technology that detects when employees reply to simulated phishing emails
- Identifies employees most susceptible to business email compromise
- Differentiates between clicking a link (moderate risk) and replying with information (high risk)
- Provides unique behavioral data not available in most competing platforms
