What social-engineering applications commonly ask
Wording differs by carrier, but the same questions keep coming up.
- Training. Do people who send payments or change bank details get anti-fraud training on social engineering, at least once a year? Describe it.
- Vendor bank changes. Are changes confirmed by calling the vendor back at a number already on file, not one from the request?
- Requests from inside. Are payment requests that seem to come from executives verified, including by phone?
- Second approval. Do transfers over a set amount need a second person's approval, and what is the amount?
- Reporting. Can staff easily flag a suspicious request?
What your client gets
- A 15-minute simulation for the people who move money: a hacked vendor mailbox, a fake executive, a cloned-voice call, a payroll direct-deposit change, and one request that's real
- Their own names, approval limit and callback rule in the game
- A manager report of who practiced, when and how they did
- With the Small Office or Business plan, a renewal worksheet that lines up those questions with what the team actually practiced, plus an editable description of the training
What it isn't
- It isn't an attestation, certification or audit, and no insurer has approved it
- It doesn't change anyone's coverage, eligibility or premium
- It doesn't replace a written callback rule or dual approval. It helps a team practice the rules the client already has
- Your client answers their own application. The worksheet reminds them to make sure every answer is true of their real process
