Phishing Simulation
TRAP
Phishing simulation and awareness automation
1 min readLast reviewed July 18, 2026
The Problem
Why TRAP exists
Most phishing simulation tools stop at the click. Someone on the security team has to notice, follow up, and manually assign remedial training — so in practice, most clicks go unaddressed. Industry data consistently points to human error as a factor in the large majority of breaches, yet most organizations still treat awareness training as a once-a-year workshop rather than a continuous, measured program.
Industry Pain Points
What most teams are stuck with today
- Awareness training is a one-time annual workshop, not a continuous program
- Phishing simulations run quarterly at best, with no realistic variation across email, SMS, or voice
- Follow-up training after a failed simulation depends on a human remembering to assign it
- Simulation results sit in a separate tool from the training platform, so nothing closes the loop
How Threat ResQ Solves It
Inside TRAP
TRAP pairs interactive cyber-hygiene training with continuously rotating, realistic phishing, smishing, and vishing simulations, then automates what happens next — the moment someone clicks, they're enrolled in a targeted micro-lesson addressing that exact scenario, and the event feeds straight into their TRISA readiness score.

Industries Served
Where TRAP fits
TRAP's continuously rotating simulations are built for a population that turns over every year — instead of a predictable quarterly test students and staff learn to spot, it keeps pace with a campus that resets each semester.

FAQ
Common questions
How often do simulations run?
Continuously, on a rotating schedule your security team controls — not a single quarterly blast that employees learn to recognize.
What kinds of attacks does TRAP simulate?
Phishing, smishing (SMS), and vishing (voice) campaigns, plus advanced scenarios like ransomware and USB-drop attacks, deepfake impersonation, and website cloning — not just a generic email template.
How is TRAP deployed?
Cloud or on-premise, with SIEM integration for organizations that need simulation and click data flowing into their existing security stack.
What happens when someone reports a simulation correctly?
Correct reports are logged as a positive signal in their TRISA readiness score, reinforcing the right behavior instead of only penalizing mistakes.
