Mimecast Awareness Training equips security teams to identify and reduce human-driven risk across their entire organization. The security awareness and human risk management solution works to continuously inspire awareness, transform behavior, and reduce the likelihood of security incidents caused by human error.
If emails are used for confidential communication, Hoxhunt is a HUGE benefit. I have caught myself feeling lax over emailing and clicking links. Hoxhunt makes you really evaluate safety and legitimacy of the emails that are received. We even have laughs about it at staff meetings where staff admit to getting "hoxhunted" and clicking a fake link.
Organisations looking to make cyber awareness training easy and engaging for their staff, Mimecast won't let you down. It's affordable, easy to work with and practical. The video series cover specific topics like strong passwords, phishing and general cyber security followed by a short quiz after each video. Employees always find the guy in the bathrobe an absolute hilarious addition to the training, but in so many ways is a brilliant way to highlight just how easy it is to overlook pratical implementations of cyber security. There is also some basic phishing attack simulation capabilities included, however for organisations looking for advanced cyber attack simulations that go beyond entry level, this may not be the best solution. It is worth noting however, the phishing simulation capabilities builtin do work effectively and are easy to prepare.
Training Packages - They cover a wide range of topics that spam emails, social media and physical security such as USB sticks
Achievements as incentives - The gaming style of collecting achievements and stars for reporting emails or completing training incentivizes people to engage in a consistent and enthusiastic way.
Training Emails - They are able to replicate phishing emails in a realistic way, so it isn't easy to spot straight away meaning we now look at every email with a critical eye which makes us safer.
it is very easy to use. it is clear and provides information as to why the type of email is one to look out for. It automatically takes you to the required information when you have spotted that it is a Hoxhunt email.
Its the best, hands down. Great, easy to use and on point content that injects some humour into the training makes it relevent whilst staying engaging. We have seen our engagement scores almost double since using Mimecast, with completion rates across the buisness above 90% compared to previous scores on less than 50%.
The product is quick and responsive. Emails alert the staff of new training content and provides a direct link to the training video. They watch, learn and than answer a brief question to test their knowledge. This feeds into the users risk profile in which additional training can be automatically applied based on a risk scores.
Symantec was something I used in my previous company, it had some issues once in a while where I had to re-generate the code for my new ID. I know its for over all protection, but if I didn't have my phone that day, I'd be unable to log in. Hoxhunt helps that way as there is a SSO authentication and needs the fingerprint, I guess it works different for different companies based on their regulations and privacy protection. Haven't really used any other tool like this
Mimecast Awareness Training is so easy to use, a child could set it up. One of the major benefits of the platform is its ability to easily prepare a years worth of content. As new users enter the organisation, its integration with Microsoft makes it easy to onboard the user and have then catch up on training.
