CAPS by Cypherdote

What CAPS by Cypherdote is

CAPS by Cypherdote is a web platform for security awareness and phishing simulation. It helps organizations assess employee awareness and spot risky behavior through campaigns sent by email and SMS, along with QR-code attack simulations. Campaign analytics include time-to-click behavior, susceptibility by department, and repeat-offender tracking. Gemini-assisted tools can draft email templates and generate variants, and customers can provide their own SMTP profiles for campaigns.

When someone fails a phishing or smishing simulation, CAPS can automatically enroll that user in a targeted course through its built-in learning management system. Courses can use slides, images, documents, PDFs, video, and quizzes with single- or multiple-answer questions. The platform describes role-based access, custom least-privilege roles, TOTP two-factor authentication, and session termination controls. Its privacy policy says client and employee data are stored and processed exclusively on servers in India. Optional camera and location permission prompts record whether a recipient allows or denies a prompt; the policy says CAPS does not collect the underlying camera, audio, or precise-location data. Interaction records are hidden after deletion or 30 days, archived for up to 120 more days, then permanently deleted.

Who it suits

CAPS suits organizations that want to assess employee responses to phishing, smishing, and QR-code simulations, then connect failed simulations to targeted training. It may also suit teams that need campaign analytics, access controls, and data stored and processed in India.

Limits
