Human Risk Management loop: a reconnaissance-based phishing simulation feeds a per-user risk score, which assigns targeted security awareness training

Three Components. One Platform.

Human Risk Management runs as an integrated loop.
Each piece makes the other two better.

Phishing Simulation

Test your workforce with realistic phishing simulations, sent to the right employees at the right time. Your Phishing Simulation Agent builds tougher tests from real OSINT reconnaissance.

Security Awareness Training

Security Awareness Training

Deliver the right training to the right people at the right time. Short, engaging lessons keep employees sharp and satisfy compliance requirements.

Per-User Risk Scoring

Per-User Risk Scoring

Every simulation result, training outcome, and reported email feeds a live risk score for each user. Aim the next campaign at the people who need it most and watch risk drop, user by user.

What Is Human Risk Management?

Attackers target people, and most security stacks treat that as an afterthought. Human Risk Management measures the risk each user carries and reduces it. Phishing simulation, security awareness training, and user risk scoring work together in one platform, so you can find the users attackers go after, train them on the tactics aimed at them, and track behavior change you can show the board.

HRM pairs with any IRONSCALES email plan, and MSPs can also offer it standalone. Simulations feed risk scores. Risk scores target training. Training results sharpen the next simulation. The loop runs continuously, and your riskiest users stop being your riskiest users.

Built From Real Reconnaissance

Your Phishing Simulation Agent gathers OSINT from social media and the public web, then builds simulations that mirror the tactics targeting your organization. Autonomous defenses need autonomous testing. Training assignments follow automatically for the people who need them, and the next simulation tests whether the lesson stuck.

HRM also draws on platform capabilities like Dynamic Email Alert Banners, which flag suspicious messages in the inbox and reinforce training at the moment it counts.

Explore Phishing Simulation

Track Risk. Prove It Dropped.

Every simulation result, training outcome, and reported email feeds a live risk score for each user, so the next campaign targets the people who need it most. Each pass through the loop pushes the scores lower. The results show up in numbers you can take to the board:

3 X
increase in employee security awareness
90 %
fewer clicks on phishing links (up to)
36,000 +
threat hunters across 18,000+ organizations

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Human Risk Management (HRM)?

Human Risk Management (HRM) is a security practice that measures the risk individual users carry in email and reduces it through targeted testing and training. IRONSCALES Human Risk Management combines phishing simulation, security awareness training, and user risk scoring in one platform, so security teams can find their most-targeted users, train them on the tactics aimed at them, and track measurable behavior change.

What is included in IRONSCALES Human Risk Management?

Three components. Phishing Simulation tests employees with realistic campaigns, from proven templates to reconnaissance-based simulations built by the Phishing Simulation Agent. Security Awareness Training delivers short, engaging lessons that satisfy compliance requirements, with the SAT Premium Content add-on for a deeper library. Per-user risk scoring ties the two together, feeding every simulation result, training outcome, and reported email into a live score for each user.

How does user risk scoring work?

Every simulation result, training outcome, and reported email feeds a live risk score for each user. Security teams use those scores to aim the next simulation campaign and training assignment at the people who need it most, then watch the scores drop as behavior changes.

How is Human Risk Management different from security awareness training?

Security awareness training is one of the three HRM components. HRM wraps training in a continuous loop with phishing simulation and user risk scoring, so the right training reaches the right users at the right time and the results show up in a score you can report.

Does Human Risk Management require an IRONSCALES email security plan?

No. HRM pairs with any IRONSCALES email plan, and MSPs can also offer it as a standalone package. Most customers run it alongside IRONSCALES Cloud Email Security, so simulation, training, scoring, and threat detection share one platform and one console.

What is the Phishing Simulation Agent?

The IRONSCALES Phishing Simulation Agent builds and runs phishing simulations the way attackers build real campaigns. It gathers OSINT from social media and the public web, generates simulations that mirror the tactics targeting your organization, and adapts as those tactics change. It works alongside the platform's standard simulation campaigns and template library.

Is Human Risk Management the same as Security Behavior Management (SBM)?

The two terms describe the same goal, a measurable reduction in the risk your people carry. Security Behavior Management emphasizes the outcome (changed behavior) over the activity (completed training). IRONSCALES Human Risk Management is built for that outcome, with user risk scoring as the measurement layer.
