LRN Corporation, a global leader in ethics and compliance (E&C) solutions, announced the launch of Catalyst Phishing, a cutting-edge phishing simulation and training tool designed to help organizations test, track, and enhance employee defenses against sophisticated social engineering attacks.

“Catalyst Phishing takes organizations beyond traditional checkbox training by combining realistic phishing simulations with personalized learning experiences, helping teams build stronger security habits and cultivate a resilient security culture,” said LRN representatives.

Integrated within LRN’s award-winning Catalyst platform, the new solution enables security and compliance teams to go further than standard awareness initiatives. It provides realistic phishing scenarios using a library of frequently updated templates that reflect the latest cyberattack trends. When employees interact with a simulated phishing attempt, they immediately receive behavior-focused microlearning, helping organizations reduce human cyber risk in real time.

“Phishing continues to be one of the most significant threats for organizations, and attackers are increasingly leveraging AI-driven, multi-channel campaigns,” said Parijat Jauhari, Chief Product and Technology Officer at LRN Corporation. “Catalyst Phishing goes beyond surface-level awareness by delivering personalized learning that encourages lasting behavioral change while reinforcing a culture of security.”

Unlike traditional phishing tools that often focus only on awareness, Catalyst Phishing aims to create measurable improvements in employee behavior. Key benefits include:

  • Reducing human cyber risk through behavior-triggered simulations and personalized microlearning.
  • Equipping CISOs and IT leaders with realistic phishing scenarios to gain deeper insights into employee vulnerabilities.
  • Supporting compliance objectives by integrating phishing training into broader ethics and compliance programs.
  • Unifying security and compliance efforts with centralized oversight, streamlined vendor management, and integrated reporting.

The platform offers detailed campaign-level reporting and user-level tracking, allowing organizations to measure training effectiveness, identify at-risk groups, and evaluate behavioral improvements over time.

Unlike standalone phishing solutions, Catalyst Phishing is fully integrated into LRN’s Catalyst platform, aligning simulations with ethics training, Code of Conduct initiatives, and broader compliance goals. Future updates will introduce analytics dashboards tailored to phishing, giving security leaders deeper visibility into behavioral trends, high-risk segments, and organizational performance metrics.

“Our expertise in behavior-based learning sets Catalyst Phishing apart from generic tools,” said Matt Plass, Global Head of Markets at LRN Corporation. “We’re committed to helping employees make ethical, secure decisions at the moment of risk, enhancing the enterprise’s security culture, and demonstrating measurable performance at scale.”

With phishing simulations now a critical component of proactive compliance programs, Catalyst Phishing supports organizations in moving from reactive, one-off training to ongoing, behavior-focused risk management. By embedding phishing simulations within the Catalyst platform, LRN empowers security and compliance teams to collaborate effectively, align on shared goals, and act on real-time behavioral data.
