Outkept

Outkept is a Belgian company founded in 2020 that provides a phishing simulation and cyber awareness platform. The platform is designed to help organizations train employees to recognize and resist phishing attacks through simulated phishing campaigns conducted in an ethical manner. The company primarily operates through a partner network of IT and security resellers, managed service providers, and consultancies across Europe, who integrate Outkept's platform into their own security offerings for end clients. Since its founding, the company has expanded from Belgium into the Netherlands, Spain, and Poland, and states its simulations have been run in over 99 countries. Outkept secured a funding round of 500,000 euros in 2023 to support platform development and team growth. The company has also pursued ISO 27001 certification as part of its trust and compliance efforts. The target market for Outkept includes businesses seeking to reduce human-related cybersecurity risk through recurring phishing simulation exercises and awareness training, delivered via a software platform rather than direct consulting engagements.
