TYPICAL TIMELINE

Campaign design takes about 1 week, with 2-4 week execution windows and post-campaign analysis.

FAQ

Can campaigns be targeted by department?

Yes. We can segment by role, geography, function, or risk profile for accurate behavior insights.

How do you handle employee privacy concerns?

We define reporting boundaries in advance and focus on program improvement, not individual blame.

Do you include training after campaigns?

Yes. We provide targeted coaching recommendations and can support follow-up simulations.
