Social Engineering Testing Services

"Hello, I'm calling from your IT support team"

No matter how strong your technical controls are, a single manipulated employee can undo them entirely. Social engineering testing assesses whether your people can identify and resist the psychological manipulation techniques that real attackers use to extract information, gain access, or bypass security controls.

Understanding your human attack surface is just as important as securing your technology. Our tailored social engineering engagements give you a clear, measurable picture of where your workforce is vulnerable and what to do about it.

Social Engineering

Your people are targeted every day, find out if they're ready.

We simulate targeted social engineering attacks against your staff, testing whether your employees can recognise and resist manipulation techniques used by real-world threat actors to gain access to systems, data, or facilities.

We craft realistic pretexts tailored to your organisation, then execute controlled social engineering scenarios, tracking outcomes, identifying vulnerable individuals or departments, and delivering targeted awareness recommendations.
  • Tailored pretext development
  • Multi-channel social engineering scenarios
  • Departmental vulnerability analysis
  • Identifies your human attack surface before adversaries exploit it
  • Informs targeted security awareness training
  • Demonstrates real risk to leadership in measurable terms
Tell us your areas of concern and employee environment, we’ll design a scenario-based engagement scoped to your organisation’s size and risk profile.

Phishing Simulation Services

One click is all it takes

We conduct realistic phishing simulations against your workforce, measuring click rates, credential submission, and reporting behaviour to give you a clear picture of your organisation’s susceptibility to email-based attacks.

We design and send tailored phishing emails that mimic real-world attack techniques, track user interactions across the campaign, and deliver a detailed report with per-department metrics and actionable awareness recommendations.
  • Fully customised phishing templates
  • Campaign tracking and user behaviour analytics
  • Credential harvesting simulation
  • Quantifies your organisation’s phishing susceptibility
  • Identifies high-risk users and departments for targeted training
  • Provides measurable benchmarks to track improvement over time
Share your email domain and approximate headcount, we’ll design a campaign tailored to your industry and threat landscape.

Physical Penetration Testing

Sometimes adversaries just walk in.

We simulate real-world physical intrusion attempts against your facilities, testing whether your physical security controls, staff awareness, and access management can withstand a determined and skilled attacker.

Following a structured reconnaissance phase, our consultants attempt to bypass physical controls using tailgating, lock picking, cloned credentials, and social engineering documenting each step with evidence and assessing the potential impact of a successful breach.
  • Physical access control bypass testing
  • Tailgating and social engineering simulation
  • Evidence-based reporting with photographic documentation
  • Validates the effectiveness of your physical security investment
  • Identifies gaps that could enable theft, sabotage, or data breach
  • Raises staff awareness of physical security risks
Define the target facilities and rules of engagement, we’ll design a realistic scenario aligned to your threat profile and provide a scoping proposal.

Vishing Simulation Services

Calling from your IT support team.

We conduct telephone-based social engineering simulations, testing whether your staff will divulge sensitive information or take unsafe actions when manipulated by a skilled and convincing caller posing as a trusted party.

Our consultants develop realistic pretexts relevant to your organisation and make controlled calls to targeted staff, documenting the information disclosed, actions taken, and the overall susceptibility of your workforce.
  • Tailored pretext and script development
  • Targeted or broad workforce calling campaigns
  • Detailed per-call outcome reporting
  • Exposes gaps in telephone security awareness
  • Reduces the risk of credential theft and data disclosure via phone
  • Complements phishing programmes for a complete human risk picture
Provide target department details and rules of engagement, we’ll develop a realistic vishing scenario and agree a campaign timeline with you.

The Process

Ethical, Proportionate, and Focused on Organisational Learning

Social engineering testing requires a methodology that is as carefully managed as it is realistic. The scenarios need to be credible enough to produce meaningful results but the process must be handled with genuine care for the individuals involved and with a clear focus on organisational improvement rather than individual exposure.

Our methodology begins with thorough scoping and senior authorisation, ensures that trusted contacts and escalation procedures are in place throughout, and concludes with findings presented in a way that drives constructive action. At every stage, we're conscious that we're testing real people and we take that responsibility seriously.

Benefits of Social Engineering Testing

Your People Are Your Greatest Asset and a Significant Target

The most sophisticated technical defences in the world can be bypassed by a convincing phone call, a well-crafted email, or a friendly face at a reception desk. Social engineering attacks target human behaviour and they're among the most effective tools in an attacker's arsenal.

Our social engineering testing assesses how your people and processes respond to realistic manipulation attempts, giving you the insight and evidence needed to build a genuinely resilient human layer of defence.

Why Daemon Labs?

Carefully Considered Social Engineering

Social engineering testing requires a careful balance. The scenarios must be realistic enough to be genuinely revealing but they must be conducted with care, ethical consideration, and a clear focus on organisational improvement rather than individual embarrassment.

We design and conduct social engineering assessments that are credible, targeted, and proportionate. Our scenarios are based on real-world attacker techniques and tailored to your organisation, your industry, and your threat profile. We test across phishing, vishing, smishing, and physical channels giving you a comprehensive view of your human-layer risk exposure.Findings are presented with care.
