Social Engineering Security Testing

Test the Human Layer — Identify Behavioral Weaknesses, Strengthen Security Culture & Prevent Real-World Attacks.

Social Engineering Services at SIRI Law LLP – Cybersecurity & Compliance Division

Human behavior remains one of the weakest links in cybersecurity.
Attackers bypass advanced technical controls by exploiting employees, partners, vendors, and even executives using psychological manipulation.

Phishing, impersonation, vishing, tailgating, credential harvesting, and deepfake-enabled attacks are now mainstream.
These attacks are fast, inexpensive, and extremely effective.

At SIRI Law LLP, our Social Engineering Security Testing simulates real-world human-targeted attacks to evaluate:

Employee awareness
Policy adherence
Behavioral gaps
Insider threat exposure
Incident response readiness

What makes SIRI unique is our legal and governance overlay, ensuring all simulations:

Are fully authorized
Avoid liability for the organization
Align with IT Act, DPDPA, GDPR & HR regulations
Produce admissible, audit-ready documentation

This ensures your organization can safely and effectively test human vulnerabilities while maintaining compliance and ethical boundaries.

Our Social Engineering Methodology

Define Social Engineering Risk Scope: Identify the key business units, personnel, and systems most vulnerable to manipulation or deception-based attacks.
Assess Current Awareness Levels: Conduct surveys or baseline phishing tests to evaluate how well employees understand and recognize social engineering tactics.
Simulate Realistic Social Engineering Scenarios: Design and execute phishing, vishing, baiting, or impersonation attacks to test employee resilience in live environments.
Implement Targeted Security Awareness Training: Deliver engaging, role-based training that educates employees on detecting and reporting social engineering threats.
Establish Clear Reporting Procedures: Create and promote easy-to-follow reporting channels for suspicious emails, phone calls, or visitor behavior.

Monitor Communication Channels for Threats: Continuously monitor emails, messaging platforms, and physical access points for signs of manipulation or malicious activity.
Harden Public-Facing Information Exposure: Limit the amount of sensitive information available on websites, social media, and press releases to reduce reconnaissance opportunities.
Review and Test Physical Security Protocols: Assess visitor access controls, tailgating risks, and badge policies to detect and prevent on-site social engineering attempts.
Track Metrics and Adjust Campaigns: Measure outcomes of simulations and training programs, then adjust content and frequency based on risk and performance.
Reinforce a Security-First Culture: Promote continuous learning and vigilance by celebrating positive behaviors and building security accountability across teams.

Five areas of Social Engineering

Red Teaming Security Services

Red Teaming Security Services are integral to our Social Engineering Services, as they simulate real-world attacks to identify vulnerabilities across people, processes, and technologies. In a red team engagement, our experts use social engineering techniques, such as phishing, pretexting, baiting, and impersonation, to test the effectiveness of your organization’s security defenses. We assess how employees react to attempted manipulations or deceptive tactics that could lead to breaches, such as providing sensitive information or granting unauthorized access. This approach helps you understand how attackers could exploit human vulnerabilities in your workforce and highlights where improvements in awareness or security practices are needed.

Managed Security Intelligence Awareness

Managed Security Intelligence Awareness involves creating a proactive, ongoing strategy to educate your organization about the latest social engineering tactics and cyber threats. Our service offers continuous monitoring of the evolving threat landscape, providing actionable intelligence on current trends in phishing, spear-phishing, social manipulation, and other social engineering attacks. By incorporating this intelligence into your security training programs, we help prepare your employees to recognize and respond to increasingly sophisticated attacks. Regular updates, threat briefings, and simulated attack scenarios help build a robust security culture and ensure your team stays vigilant against social engineering threats.

Cyber Resilience

Cyber Resilience is essential in ensuring that your organization can respond, recover, and adapt after falling victim to a social engineering attack. Our service helps enhance your cyber resilience by integrating social engineering attack simulations into your incident response and disaster recovery planning. We simulate various social engineering scenarios, such as phishing campaigns targeting key personnel, and assess how well your organization can detect, contain, and mitigate the impact of these attacks. Additionally, we evaluate your recovery processes and ensure that they account for social engineering incidents, providing you with actionable insights to bolster your defenses and improve your response capabilities.

Security Program Development

Security Program Development focuses on creating a comprehensive security strategy that integrates social engineering threat management into your overall security posture. We work with your team to design and implement policies, processes, and best practices that address social engineering risks, such as spear-phishing, vishing, and pretexting. Our service includes developing a tailored awareness training program that teaches employees to recognize manipulative tactics, reinforces reporting protocols, and instills a culture of skepticism toward unsolicited requests for sensitive information. By including social engineering in your broader security program, we ensure that it is treated as a critical risk and that all organizational levels are prepared to mitigate it.

Corporate Security Training

Our Corporate Security Training service specifically addresses social engineering by offering comprehensive educational programs for employees. We train your staff to identify common social engineering tactics, from phishing emails to in-person manipulation, and empower them to make informed decisions about suspicious communications or requests. Training is delivered through a combination of interactive workshops, real-world simulations, and phishing awareness campaigns that test employees’ reactions to simulated attacks. We also provide specialized training for high-risk individuals, such as executives or key personnel, to help them identify targeted attacks. By fostering a security-conscious workforce, we reduce the likelihood of successful social engineering attacks and improve your organization’s overall security culture.
