About Brightside AI
Brightside AI is a Swiss cybersecurity company helping organizations defend against AI-enabled social engineering — including phishing, vishing, and deepfake-driven attacks.
Modern attackers increasingly target people rather than systems. Brightside AI helps CISOs and security teams reduce human risk through realistic attack simulations and training that reflect how today’s adversaries operate across email, sms, voice and other channels.
The platform delivers AI-powered phishing and vishing simulations together with security awareness programs designed for the GenAI threat landscape. Scenarios cover threats such as:
- deepfake impersonation
- multi-channel spear phishing
- business email compromise (BEC)
- vendor impersonation attacks
Employees experience lifelike attack scenarios tailored to their role and context, while security leaders gain clear visibility into behavioral vulnerabilities and measurable improvements over time. Brightside AI is used by CISOs, security awareness leaders, and GRC teams who need to demonstrate real risk reduction, not just training completion. The platform provides human-risk analytics that help prioritize security investments, support audits, and align awareness programs with frameworks such as NIST and ISO 27001.
