Challenge
Managing human risk in a high-stress environment
Klinikum Darmstadt operates in a unique environment where people are not seated at their PCs all day. When they do use their computers, they often do so in a rush, increasing the likelihood of clicking on a phishing email. The potential damage from such a breach could be significant.
Solution
SoSafe phishing simulation to enhance security culture
To tackle this challenge, Klinikum Darmstadt implemented SoSafe’s phishing simulations. This solution allows them to train and prepare their staff for real-life threats effectively.
Result
Enhanced security culture backed by data
Klinikum Darmstadt achieved a high Behavior Score, a crucial SoSafe metric that combines several key phishing indicators, including click rates, which were reduced by 50%, as a testament to better human risk management. This reduction is evidence that the training was effective, ensuring that Klinikum Darmstadt and their patients are safeguarded against email-based threats.
