User Testimonials
	Symantec Email Threat Detection and Response	PhishRod
Likelihood to Recommend	Broadcom I have had a suitation where the company domain was being blasted by tons of spam emails and the Symantec Email Threat Detection stood to the test and block all these harmful email from entering our users mailbox, for a less appropriate scenario would be the frequency of the false positives that are reported that I have to train the tool how to allow these traffic to pass. Incentivized Samuel Gumbs Information Technology Audit Manager Read full review	PhishRod LLC PhishRod has helped us create mock phishing attacks throughout our company to help teach our users what to look for in a phishing attack. The ability to create custom attacks has helped tremendously because we are able to use attacks related to what we encounter on a daily basis. Creating training phishing attack emails has helped improve our overall security. Incentivized BR Bob Rigdon Computer Technician Read full review
