Hoxhunt vs. Phished

Hoxhunt has the right strategy to make the users stop and think twice about what they are reading or clicking. Taking the user to the point of double-checking on every single unexpected message, and creating a safer scenario for any company.

Phished was very easy to implement at my organization. We have had no issues with my team navigating this software. The platform is extremely user friendly. I would recommend Phished to any company looking to protect themself against cyber attacks. This software is an asset that definitely pays for itself in the long run. You can never be too safe!

Incentivized

• Disguises emails like someone from within the organization.
• Does a good job of making an email seem urgent.
• Does a good job of appealing to the emotions, to attract someone to open an attachment.
• Seems to pick up on recent topics that you had emailed about, and tries to imitate something in that topic.

Incentivized

• Provides simulations to help increase cyber threat awareness
• Provides continual active reporting to lock out cyber attacks
• Provides their "Behavioral Risk Score" to monitor the organization's security status at all times

Incentivized

• The score could be more transparent, as there are people with more stars and I don't know why, as I correctly reported the phishing
• Have other ways to get stars other than just reporting email
• Have a user score comparison tool

Incentivized

• I would like more testing and personalized simulations added
• It would be great to have job role specific training so each different department knows better of the cyber threats that might come their particular way
• More detailed status reports would certainly be beneficial

Phished seemed like the better alternative for my organization. I have used Barracuda in the past with another employer. That software doesn't provide the status reports that Phished does. Barracuda filters company wide emails which seems like a good feature, but can be detrimental when "safe" emails aren't making their way through. Phished has a better monitoring system overall
