Case Studies
Real organizations.
Real training.
Real impact.
Shira is being used by businesses, nonprofits, and digital security educators across the world in a wide variety of contexts, with one common thread: vulnerability to phishing attacks.
Fundación Huésped
huesped.org.ar ↗Our users are more alert and active in identifying threats, and our support department is receiving many more alerts about suspicious emails.
Fundación Huésped, an Argentine nonprofit working at the intersection of public health, human rights, and access to information, partnered with Shira through its Innovation Lab. Fundación Huésped built a phishing training program for its 200-person staff using real phishing attacks their own employees had received in previous months.
