Employees are a major source of security breaches within companies. Unfortunately, the majority of security solutions are aimed at the technical aspects of preventing security breaches, whether it is providing firewalls, AI detection mechanisms, zero-trust networks, encryption, or something else.

Even the IT security audits that companies perform do not address the human element of security compromises that a social engineering audit would cover.
