ShieldPhish:
India’s AI-Powered Phishing Simulation Platform
In the fast-changing world of cybersecurity, where every click can make or break an organization’s defenses, one Indian leader is rewriting the rules. Vaishali Mutalik, one of India’s leading women in cybersecurity, saw a gap that global solutions weren’t addressing—and she built ShieldPhish, an AI-powered phishing simulation platform designed to empower people, not just protect systems.
A Vision Born from Experience
Across industries such as banking, IT, healthcare, and manufacturing, Vaishali Mutalik observed a recurring pattern: companies invested heavily in firewalls, SIEMs, and endpoint tools, yet still suffered breaches when a single employee clicked on a phishing link. The human factor was being neglected, even as regulators demanded stronger employee readiness under frameworks like ISO 27001, GDPR, RBI, SEBI, and India’s DPDPA.
Instead of accepting imported solutions, Vaishali posed a bold question: Why not develop a world-class phishing defense platform in India itself? The answer became ShieldPhish, an AI-powered phishing simulation platform designed to empower the human firewall, align with compliance, and prepare organizations against real-world threats.
Her journey represents more than technology. In a male-dominated industry, Vaishali has broken barriers to emerge as one of India’s most respected women leaders in cybersecurity. She blends technical expertise with entrepreneurial vision, positioning ShieldPhish as a homegrown alternative to global players—cost-effective, regulatory-ready, and scalable worldwide.
ShieldPhish today is more than a product; it is a movement for digital trust. Vaishali’s story proves that gender is no barrier to innovation or global impact, and that Indian women can lead disruptive technologies shaping the future of cybersecurity.
Disrupting the Market with ShieldPhish
With that conviction, ShieldPhish was born—a Made in India disruptive platform with global ambitions. Unlike traditional awareness programs, ShieldPhish utilizes AI to craft realistic phishing scenarios, enabling employees to safely experience threats before encountering them in the real world. Its behavioral vulnerability scoring and automated compliance reporting make it uniquely suited to organizations facing both rising cyberattacks and growing regulatory pressure.
“Cybersecurity is no longer just about technology—it’s about people. ShieldPhish empowers employees to become defenders, turning the weakest link into the strongest firewall,” Vaishali often says.
Breaking Barriers as a Woman Leader
Vaishali Mutalik’s journey goes beyond building technology—it is about breaking barriers in one of the world’s most male-dominated industries. As a visionary leader, she has become a role model for young women aspiring to enter the cybersecurity field.
Her creation, ShieldPhish, is an AI-powered phishing simulation platform built with a mission to transform the weakest link in cybersecurity—the human factor—into the strongest defense. By blending technical excellence with entrepreneurial vision, Vaishali has positioned ShieldPhish as a homegrown, compliance-ready alternative to global solutions.
Her success is proof that Indian women leaders are not only contributing but also shaping the future of digital trust. With ShieldPhish, she demonstrates how innovation, determination, and inclusivity can empower India to lead in the global cybersecurity landscape.
Impact That Speaks for Itself
ShieldPhish is today trusted by over 100+ enterprises across diverse industries, delivering measurable improvements in cybersecurity resilience. Organizations using the platform report significantly lower phishing click rates, more substantial employee confidence, and audit-ready compliance reports that easily satisfy regulatory requirements.
Beyond just metrics, ShieldPhish is driving a critical shift in mindset, helping businesses transition from reactive security to proactive resilience. By combining AI-powered phishing simulations with behavioral insights, the platform not only addresses immediate risks but also builds long-term vigilance among employees. This dual focus on compliance and empowerment makes ShieldPhish a transformative solution for enterprises seeking to strengthen their human firewall while staying ahead in an evolving threat landscape.
