Shira

Shira is designed for mission-driven organizations—education, healthcare, nonprofits, and beyond—with limited resources and a responsibility to protect the people they serve.

We have over a decade experience building tools to make people and organizations safer.

9 in 10 organizations faced an identity breach in 2024.

Phishing is the most common attack 💰

Phishing remains one of the most common ways attackers gain access to organizations. Phishing serves as the primary entry point for over 75% of cyberattacks.

Reaches your team wherever they communicate 💬

Phishing is no longer limited to email. Today, phishing also happens through SMS, messaging apps, social media, and other channels people use every day.

Click rates don't build lasting skills ⏳

Traditional phishing simulations test a single reaction in a single moment. They don't teach people what to look for the next time, across the channels attackers actually use.
