Human error accounts for over 80% of successful cyberattacks in Saudi Arabia — and NCA ECC requires organisations to test employee security awareness. Quantum Innovations delivers controlled social engineering assessments in Saudi Arabia — phishing campaigns, vishing (voice phishing), pretexting, and impersonation — measuring how susceptible your workforce is to manipulation. All findings mapped to NCA ECC awareness and training controls for audit submissions.
In today's security landscape, human vulnerabilities are often the weakest link in organisational defences. Quantum Innovations' Social Engineering service evaluates how susceptible your employees are to manipulation tactics used by cybercriminals. By simulating realistic attack scenarios — phishing campaigns, pretexting calls, and physical intrusion attempts — we assess your organisation's human firewall and identify areas where training and awareness need improvement.
We combine behavioural psychology expertise with advanced simulation techniques to deliver comprehensive assessments that reveal how your staff responds to social engineering threats — evaluating employee awareness, adherence to security policies, and the effectiveness of your existing training programmes.

Social Engineering Frequently Asked Questions
Social engineering testing evaluates how vulnerable your employees are to psychological manipulation — phishing emails, vishing calls, pretexting, and impersonation. In Saudi Arabia, NCA ECC requires organisations to test and maintain employee security awareness as part of technical and governance control validation. Social engineering assessments provide the evidence required for NCA ECC awareness control audit submissions.
Quantum Innovations conducts phishing (email-based), vishing (voice/phone-based), smishing (SMS-based), WhatsApp-based attacks, pretexting, and impersonation of government entities, vendors, or IT support. All campaigns are designed in Arabic and English to reflect the actual tactics attackers use against Saudi organisations — including SAMA/NCA-themed lures targeting financial and government sector employees.
Typically no — employees are not informed in advance, as this would defeat the purpose of the test. Only authorised stakeholders (CISO, HR, senior management) are informed before the campaign begins. After the assessment, Quantum Innovations recommends conducting awareness training for all employees — including those who clicked or were deceived — turning the test into a positive learning experience rather than a punitive one.
You receive a comprehensive report including click rates, credential submission rates, and response rates by department; identification of high-risk individuals and departments; root cause analysis of vulnerabilities; targeted training recommendations; and an NCA ECC awareness control mapping table for direct use in NCA audit submissions.
