Human Element
People are part of your attack surface. Human Element helps you run awareness campaigns, quiz your team, and track how they improve over time — all backed by real, locally-stored data.

What it does
- Campaigns — create and track awareness drills for a target group.
- Quizzes — record quiz attempts and pass/fail outcomes per person.
- Results — real statistics computed from the actual records you log (click rate, report rate, pass rate).
How to use it
1
Create a campaign
Define a target group and the awareness drill you want to run.
2
Record outcomes
Log quiz attempts and drill results as they happen. The stats update from the real rows you add.
3
Track improvement
Watch the metrics over time — a rising report rate and pass rate mean your team is getting harder to phish.
What you get
A real, evidence-backed view of your team's security awareness — campaigns, quiz results and trends — stored locally and never sent anywhere.
Tips
- Run short, regular quizzes rather than one big annual training — retention is higher.
- Celebrate a rising report rate; reporting a suspicious email is the behavior you want.
Awareness & training only — by design. Human Element is for education and tracking. It is intentionally honest: it does not send real phishing emails. Sending deceptive emails without informed consent is unethical and often illegal, so Nexus does not do it.
