Adaptive simulation data

Executives face a different threat model.

Executive public visibility, authority, relationships, and access give attackers more material to personalize an attack, and more to gain if it succeeds. Adaptive applies focused protection to that outsized level of risk.

Stop targeted executive attacks.

Adaptive Email Security detects and removes threats that exploit a leader’s identity, authority, and trusted relationships.

  • Targeted spear phishing and executive impersonation
  • Business email compromise and payment fraud

Mt. San Rafael Hospital prepares employees for executive impersonation.

Challenge

Mt. San Rafael Hospital’s traditional security training was not keeping pace with AI-powered impersonation attacks involving executive deepfakes, voice clones, and urgent social-engineering requests.

Their workflow with Adaptive

The hospital uses Adaptive to create personalized simulations featuring synthetic videos and cloned voices of real executives. Employees encounter scenarios such as fraudulent finance requests and urgent board-meeting scams, with training tailored to each department’s risk.

The result

Seeing and hearing their CIO in a deepfake made impersonation feel immediate and personal, capturing employees’ attention and strengthening their readiness for AI-powered social engineering.
