Tracking Your Vishing Campaign

Monitoring the Progress of an Ongoing Campaign and Downloading Reports

Updated over a month ago

To access the results of your vishing campaign, whether ongoing or completed, click the Campaigns tab in the Vishing module.


1 – Objectives

  • To know the key monitoring indicators for vishing campaigns

  • To understand the different statuses associated with phone calls and emails

  • To interpret the events collected during the campaign


2 – Prerequisites

  • Have an Arsen account allowing access to campaigns

  • Have launched at least one vishing campaign

  • Know the basic concepts behind campaign operation (call → email → possible clicks / compromise)


3 – Accessing vishing campaign tracking

Click Campaigns in the Vishing section of the main menu.
The central table displays campaigns grouped into three tabs.

3.1 – Determining the progress status of the campaign to review

3.1.1 – Active Campaigns

Groups all ongoing campaigns whose statuses can be:

  • Running: calls are still being made

  • Processing: all calls have been made, but the campaign remains open to collect behavioral events (email reactions, for example)

3.1.2 – Completed

Campaigns for which Arsen no longer collects data. These campaigns are finished.

3.1.3 – Archived

Previously archived campaigns.

3.2 – Accessing campaign details

To view the details of a campaign, simply click the name of the campaign you wish to analyze.

4 – Understanding vishing campaign data

The data collected in a vishing campaign is interpreted the same way as in a phishing campaign.


With three exceptions:

4.1 – Answered calls

Indicates that the employee picked up the call made by the AI. This event marks the beginning of the voice interaction.


This is displayed as a special status in the interface: Calls Answered.

4.2 – Call attempts

After three unsuccessful call attempts, the platform gives up on that target.


This results in a difference between the number of targets and the number of calls that connected (Calls Answered).

4.3 – Email delivery

In a vishing campaign, the Delivered status refers to the delivery of the email that occurs after the call, meaning after the Answered Call event.

Vishing campaign dashboard filtered on targets with the Delivered status, showing global metrics and employees who received the email without further interaction.


5 – Example of an event sequence for a compromised employee

Here is what the logical sequence of events may look like for a compromised employee:

  • Calling… → call attempt

  • Answered Call → the employee picks up

  • Delivered → email sent and received after the call

  • Click → the employee clicks the link in the email

  • Compromised → credentials entered or compromising action performed

This sequence perfectly reflects the flow of a simulated vishing attack.
