Why Indian organisations need phishing simulation
Phishing is the leading way attackers get in, and the scams hitting Indian teams follow local patterns — not the generic global playbook.
UPI & payment-portal impersonation
Fake UPI mandate approvals and payment-app alerts pressure staff into authorising transfers. PhishSkill recreates these so finance and operations teams meet them in training first.
KYC & bank fraud over email and WhatsApp
Attackers pose as bank officials demanding urgent KYC updates or OTPs. Simulating these builds the instinct to stop and verify before acting.
Aadhaar & government-portal lures
Fake UIDAI (Aadhaar) updates and GST-portal credential pages are uniquely Indian patterns. The library models them directly.
IT/ITES vendor-invoice fraud
India's IT and services firms handle cross-border payments, making fake 'client invoice' and vendor-change requests a high-value target. Training reinforces out-of-band verification.
The message your team needs to recognise
India's most common scams arrive on WhatsApp and SMS as urgent "bank" messages — a KYC suspension, an OTP request, or a UPI mandate to approve. PhishSkill puts these in front of staff safely, so the first time they see one isn't with real money on the line.
- A look-alike link, not the bank's real domain
- Manufactured urgency — 'account suspended today'
- A request for an OTP, PIN, or UPI mandate approval
- Pressure to act before verifying through the bank
Built for India, not adapted to it
WhatsApp simulation
One of the few platforms that runs authorised phishing simulations on WhatsApp as well as email — the channel Indian business and customers actually run on.
India-specific templates
Scenarios modelled on real local patterns — UPI scams, bank KYC fraud, Aadhaar and GST portals — instead of generic global lures.
DPDP & CERT-In aligned reporting
One-click reports that give you documented evidence of testing and training to support DPDP Act and CERT-In readiness.
Regional threat relevance
Templates reflect campaigns active against Indian organisations, kept current rather than frozen in a static catalogue.
Risk scoring
Per-employee and per-department risk scores show exactly where your real exposure is, so training goes where it's needed.
Custom on request

India-specific simulation templates
Frameworks our reports help you evidence
Employee-awareness evidence for India's key data and security regulations.
| Framework | Why awareness training matters |
|---|---|
| DPDP Act 2023 | Expects 'reasonable security practices' and staff awareness to protect personal data. |
| CERT-In Directions 2022 | 6-hour incident-reporting window makes early employee detection critical. |
| RBI Cybersecurity Framework | Requires periodic employee security training for regulated entities and their partners. |
| IT Act 2000 (Sec. 43A) | Liability for failing to maintain reasonable security practices over sensitive data. |
PhishSkill supports your compliance evidence with documented testing and training records — it is not a certification or a guarantee of compliance.
