With the CV Portal Test, we simulate a phishing attack via fake CVs to test whether employees open insecure files or share sensitive information. This is how we discover vulnerabilities in your application process and raise awareness among your team.
What is a CV Portal Test?
With our CV Portal Test, we test the security of your application and recruitment process, as well as the alertness of your HR staff. We send fake job applications with fake resumes to your organization to see if employees open suspicious attachments or share sensitive information. This test simulates a realistic phishing attack and helps determine whether your team is prepared well enough to recognize and reject unsafe files or suspicious requests. This ensures your application process remains secure and protects confidential data from cyber threats.
The purpose of the CV Portal Test is to discover vulnerabilities in the application process and increase awareness among your team.
After the test, you will receive a detailed report with findings and recommendations to strengthen security around your job applications and better prepare your employees for digital threats.
This will help make your organization more secure against phishing attacks and prevent sensitive information from accidentally falling into the wrong hands.
Our approach to a CV Portal Test
A CV Portal Test specifically focuses on the alertness of HR employees through online application platforms and CV portals. Phishing attacks through these platforms are becoming more common, with hackers posing as fake job applicants. The compromised information can range from false personal information to sensitive documents, such as resumes and IDs.
Simulation of real phishing attacks
We execute realistic, customized phishing attacks similar to the phishing attempts your employees may encounter on a daily basis. These could be emails, text messages (smishing), phone calls (vishing), resumes or links to fake websites.
Customization for your organization
We customize the test based on the specific needs of your organization and the high-risk group within your company. For example, this could be a targeted test for certain departments or employees who manage sensitive information.
Detailed reporting and analysis
After the test, you will receive a detailed report in which we not only indicate how many employees responded to the phishing attack, but also which specific components of the attack were successful. This helps identify weaknesses in your employees' security awareness.
Training and awareness
After the test is conducted, we provide targeted training and guidance to employees who fell into the trap. This ensures that they are better prepared for future phishing attempts and that they know how to recognize suspicious messages and safely handle digital communications.
Repetition and improvement
Phishing attacks are constantly evolving. Therefore, we recommend repeating phishing tests regularly to keep your employees on their toes and their knowledge up-to-date. This way, security within your organization will always remain strong and relevant.
With our CV Portal Test, we help protect your organization from cyber threats that specifically target online job application processes. In this test, we engage in phishing where we send fake resumes or other documents to the HR employee through the resume portal.
