Hyper-sophisticated conversational threading
Dynamic, multi-step conversational threading allows red teams to emulate real attacker tactics by engaging in back-and-forth exchanges with target users, seamlessly moving across channels.
Human Risk Management Use Case
Red Teaming & Insider Risk Management
Red teams are a critical piece of a mature security program, designed to emulate adversary tactics to identify and remediate the risk of malicious, negligent, or ignorant employees. Traditional red teaming, though, is resource-heavy and manual. Doppel provides a scalable way to pressure-test employees against the tactics that attackers are using everyday, across every channel.
The reality: Adversaries are resource-rich. Modern social engineering campaigns combine phishing, vishing, smishing, impersonation, and targeted pretexts across multiple channels simultaneously.
Why now?
Pressure-testing that scales
Red teams and pen testers that rely on manual exercises, expensive consultants, or single-channel testing often struggle to keep pace with highly motivated and resource-rich attackers. The result is an uphill battle to validate employee readiness and eliminate insider risk.

Why Doppel?
How Doppel Scales Red Teaming
Insider risk management at scale
Doppel handles the infrastructure so red teams can create multistep, dynamic interactions with users on any platform, directly within Doppel.
AI-powered or human-led red teaming
AI-powered responses boost operational efficiency, while human-led interactions give red teams the flexibility to respond directly to users.
Behavioral Measurement & Targeted Interventions
Every interaction, escalation, and exception granted is tracked, for a defensible understanding of where risk lies. Then, when appropriate, the right behavior can be reinforced through training, personalized quizzes, and just-in-time interventions.
Why Red Teaming Matters
Adversaries prey on weak spots within an organization. That could mean scouring the dark web for leaked credentials, or brute forcing their way into unprotected systems. But often, they take a more manipulative approach: using emotion or urgency to convince an employee to grant legitimate access or reveal key information. And attackers are persistent, following up on existing threads, responding in near real-time, and changing tact when they hit a wall.
Red teaming is the only way for an organization to predict how their employees respond in those scenarios. Red teaming reveals which users keep their defenses up even as the playing field evolves, and which may fall victim to deceptive campaigns or lucrative offers.
Doppel unlocks red teaming at scale, with human-led or AI-powered dynamic exchanges that test how employees react in evolving scenarios, and provide clear visibility into risk levels across the organization.
Outcomes that Matter
Red Teaming At Scale
Sophisticated AI agents and human-led interactions keep the pressure on during simulation campaigns, so employees are tested against actual attacker tactics, not just static campaigns.
Clear Visibility Into Risk
Automated red teaming offers better insight into employee performance in every scenario, helping to close awareness gaps and identify ill intent quickly and effectively.
Increased Operational Efficiency
Easily scale red teaming processes by combining multiple channels, dynamic conversations, and Doppel-hosted infrastructure, all in one platform.
Higher Protocol Compliance
Measurably higher adherence to security processes resulting from a continuous cycle of training, validating, and reinforcing.
Extend Red Teaming with Digital Risk Protection
Red teaming strengthens your internal resilience. But modern social engineering often starts outside your perimeter—with impersonation infrastructure, fraudulent domains, and brand abuse. Doppel's Digital Risk Protection detects and disrupts these external threats, stopping campaigns earlier in the kill chain.

FAQS
Frequently asked questions
How is Doppel red teaming different from traditional red team exercises?
Traditional red teams rely on manual workflows and human-only interactions. Doppel empowers red teams to scale with AI-powered or human-led interactions, seamlessly carrying out pen testing and red teaming across channels, while Doppel handles the infrastructure. Doppel is anchored in Social Engineering Defense (SED)—focusing on multi-channel protections, impersonation detection, and human workflow strengthening. We test across email, voice, SMS, social media, and messaging to mirror how modern adversaries actually operate.
Is this safe and ethical for employees?
Yes. All simulations are controlled, scoped, and designed to improve resilience and response behavior. Outcomes focus on systems and workflows—not blame. Doppel follows responsible disclosure practices, obfuscates sensitive information, and works within your organization's policies.
What does "success" look like after a red team engagement?
Success means stronger verification behaviors, faster escalation times, higher reporting rates, and measurable reductions in risky behaviors—tracked over time as part of your Human Risk Management (HRM) program. You get executive-ready reports and insights with clear findings tied to specific users, teams, channels, or patterns.
How often should we run red team exercises?
The cadence of red teaming exercised depends largely on the intended outcome. We recommend conducting penetration testing and red teaming designed to identify gaps in awareness on a continuous or quarterly basis. Social engineering tactics evolve rapidly—especially with AI-generated content—so ongoing testing ensures your defenses stay current and your teams maintain readiness. However, red teaming geared toward identifying insider risk can be done on a more limited scale, but on a more regular basis, given the sensitive and urgent nature.
Can Doppel red teaming include deepfake and AI-generated pretexts?
Yes. Doppel Simulation can incorporate synthetic voice clones, AI-generated messaging, and sophisticated pretexts that mirror the latest adversary techniques—giving your team realistic exposure to threats they will increasingly face, and allowing security teams to see how they perform.
