Our Biggest Security Upgrades of 2026: ClickFix Shield and More
Every so often our security team ships something we cannot keep quiet about. This month it happened three times.
We have spent the past year watching how attacks against businesses actually unfold, and all three of these releases came out of what we saw. We modernized our security training around the attacks actually landing in inboxes right now. We launched an interactive Threat Test that generates certificates of completion for HR. We are rolling out ClickFix Shield to stop the fastest growing attack on the Internet. Two of the three are free for any business to use today, whether you work with us or not. The third is something no other Managed Service Provider (MSP) in the country offers.
A Threat Test unlike any other
Most phishing quizzes amount to a multiple choice test with a cartoon fish on it, so we built something different. The Wireguided Threat Test drops you into a realistic inbox with up to twelve real attacks pulled from the wild. The cards are customized to you, and your job is to find the red flags before your clicks run out. Some cards look like a Microsoft warning, others look like an invoice or a note from the CEO asking for gift cards, and a few are considerably sneakier than that.

Score 90% or better and you earn a Certified Defender certificate with your name and organization on it. Share the test link in a staff email, then ask everyone who passes to send their certificate to whoever handles your compliance files. Within a week you will have documented proof that your team knows how to spot a phishing attack. Bring that stack of certificates to your next insurance renewal and watch your carrier's expression change.
Nobody else in our industry offers anything like it for free or without a meeting with a salesperson first. You do not need to be a Wireguided client, just nine spare minutes and a little confidence. Take the Threat Test and see how you do.
Security training rebuilt from real attacks
Our Security Awareness Guide got a full rebuild as well. Instead of a slideshow of generic warnings, it walks your team through three real phishing emails. It lets them hover over each hidden red flag to see why it works and what to do instead. A second chapter covers the scams that come after the email, including the fake IT support call and the ClickFix trick we explain below. A third chapter answers the question we hear most often. How do you tell whether an account has already been hacked?

The guide is written for people who do not work in IT. It takes about fifteen minutes to read. Like the Threat Test it is free to share with anyone. Drop the link in your next staff email. For our clients it is one piece of a bigger training program with live sessions and Lunch & Learns at your office. Behind all of it sits a help desk that answers "is this email real?" in minutes rather than days.
ClickFix Shield, and why nobody else has it
Now for the one you cannot get anywhere else. Wireguided is the first IT provider in the United States to protect every client against ClickFix without having to utilize a 3rd party product. Plenty of tools can block a bad command, but nobody else has a blocker that also notifies the employee and educates them on the spot. It is built into our cybersecurity service, and it is already running on our clients' computers.

ClickFix is a scam that walks you through infecting your own computer with three keystrokes, and Microsoft found it was behind 47% of initial access cases last year. We break down exactly what the fake page looks like in chapter two of the Security Awareness Guide.
Your move
Start with the free stuff. Take the Threat Test and send it to your team. Then share the Security Awareness Guide at your next staff meeting. Both are yours with our compliments and no strings attached.
Then, if you like what you see, see what else we do. ClickFix Shield is one layer of a defense that has kept our clients at zero successful ransomware attacks in 25 years. Every client gets ClickFix Shield as part of one flat monthly rate that also covers 24/7 monitoring, endpoint protection, Microsoft 365 hardening, and a help desk that actually responds in minutes.
