GENT, Belgium - OhioPen -- Employees learn to spot phishing with the new Swiping Game.

Merelbeke, Belgium – September 4, 2025 - Sectricity, a specialist in cybersecurity awareness and ethical hacking, today launched the interactive Phishing Swiping Game, also known as Swishing. This competitive and user-friendly game helps employees recognise phishing emails in a fun, accessible, and effective way.

"Traditional phishing tests often lead to frustration and distrust, while e-learning modules rarely stick," says Yves Van Tongerloo, Managing Director at Sectricity. "That's why we developed Swishing: a fun and effective alternative that works."

How does it work?

Participants view realistic emails and swipe left for phishing and right for legitimate. When an error occurs, instant feedback explains the missed red flags. This way, they learn through play how to spot suspicious signals. After a few weeks, a winner is automatically announced based on score, sharpness, and participation.

Who is it for?

For IT & Security Managers: A safe and accessible alternative to traditional phishing tests, with live dashboards, risk reports and participation tracking.

For HR & L&D Managers: No dull mandatory modules, but a motivating experience that engages employees.

Perfect timing for organisations

The launch comes just in time for October, International Cybersecurity Awareness Month. Many organisations are looking for original ways to re-engage employees in digital security. Swishing offers a fresh, interactive, and non-intrusive way to achieve that.

More than just a game

The Phishing Swiping Game fits seamlessly into Sectricity's broader cybersecurity training portfolio. It can be easily integrated into existing awareness programs and onboarding flows. The game is GDPR-compliant, scalable, and measurable - ideal for small teams and large organisations seeking results-driven training.
