Government & Public Sector
Phishing Simulation for Government Agencies & Public Sector
Officials get fake tender notices and ministry circulars linking to login pages on lookalike .gov domains. PhishGrid sends harmless copies of those lures to your staff, in line with FISMA and NIST security frameworks, and shows who would have typed a password.
- Meet FISMA & NIST SP 800-53 AT-2 training requirements
- Simulate nation-state spear phishing tactics
- Find who would type a password into a fake .gov portal
- Department-level risk reporting for security officers
- Free forever, no procurement needed

Why Government Agencies Are High-Value Phishing Targets
Criminal groups want agency data to sell or ransom. Nation-state actors want it for intelligence, and they can afford to wait.
Nation-State Spear Phishing
The email usually arrives after weeks of reading. It names a real committee, quotes last month's circular and comes from an address one letter off a colleague's. Filters let it through because there is nothing in it they have seen before.
Insider Threat Enablement
Once a password is phished, the attacker logs in as the official and reads what that person can read. In the logs it looks like an ordinary working day.
FISMA & NIST Compliance
FISMA asks for awareness programmes that are documented, not just held. Federal agencies record that training under NIST SP 800-53 AT-2, and a phishing simulation gives you evidence that it changed behaviour.
Supply Chain Attacks
A small contractor with a VPN account is easier to phish than the agency it serves. Attackers take over the vendor's mailbox and reply inside a real thread, so the fake tender amendment arrives looking like the next message in a conversation.
How It Works
Phishing Simulation Built for Government
FISMA-aligned simulations for the whole agency, run from the cloud with nothing to install.
Baseline Susceptibility Testing
Send one round of simulations to every department before any training starts. The results tell you which teams and roles are most at risk, and they give you a number to compare against later.
Nation-State Style Attack Simulations
We send the kinds of email agencies actually get, including fake tender notices and login portals on lookalike .gov domains. Some lures run over two messages: the first one only asks a harmless question, and the link comes after the official replies.
Role-Based Security Training
Whoever clicks gets a short lesson on the spot, about their own job. For an admin that is often a fake MFA reset prompt. For a case worker it is usually an attachment from someone posing as a citizen.
FISMA & Audit-Ready Reporting
Reports are mapped to NIST SP 800-53 AT-2 controls. We would rather show an auditor phishing resistance rates by department than a sign-in sheet from training day.
AI-Driven Threat Intelligence, Built for Public Sector
APT-Style Phishing Templates
Templates follow real campaigns against government targets: a forwarded briefing note, an invite from a visiting delegation, a password expiry notice for the agency portal.
Zero Infrastructure Change
No on-premise installation, no firewall exceptions and no procurement cycle. Sign up and the first campaign can go out in minutes.
Compliance Documentation
Reports for FISMA annual assessments and Inspector General reviews, and for tracking CISA cybersecurity performance goals.
