Infosec IQ

for companies looking to meet international requirements regarding information security, like standards controls and things like that for example, ISO27001, NIST, PCI, and others. also for reducing the risk about bad employees behaviors, thanks to Infosec our employees keep reporting suspicious emails, and things they don't understand, so we are sure they always aware about security risk.

Very easy to roll out security training for users.
Very cumbersome to make a phishing campaign

With the amount of junk/spam emails, Infosec IQ is will suited with is phishing and training videos. It provides a well-rounded choice of material we can provide to our end-users.

There have been scenarios where the phishing button does not work, and IT has to correct the issue. We have also had issues where a user has completed the training, but the IQ systems still show that they have not completed the training.

Infosec is great for any size company . from small medium to large enterprises

Its well suited for all organizations in my opinion. You dont' really understand how little training end users have on security training such as phishign emails until you implement this. We went from a 40% open rate to under 10%. Its not perfect but it definately lowers our risk.

A scenario where InfoSec is well-suited is when you notice more and more spam and/or phishing emails getting by spam filters. Aside from refining these filters to catch more, it is always a good idea to educate users on what to look for to determine what is potentially a phishing email.

Infosec IQ stands out as an excellent solution for conducting recurrent trainings and running simulated phishing campaigns. The platform not only offers robust features but also provides prompt and reliable support to its users. This level of assistance ensures a smooth experience and helps address any questions or concerns that may arise during training or campaign execution.One notable advantage of Infosec IQ is its support for Single Sign-On (SSO) functionality. This feature enables users to access the platform seamlessly using their existing credentials, eliminating the need for separate login information. By integrating with an organization's existing authentication system, Infosec IQ simplifies user management and enhances security by leveraging established access controls.In summary, the strengths of Infosec IQ include its comprehensive training and simulated phishing capabilities, excellent support services, and the convenience of SSO integration. These features contribute to a more efficient and effective training experience, allowing organizations to strengthen their cybersecurity defenses while minimizing administrative burdens.

For a company or organization that doesn't have an in-house training group devoted to the subject matter - this is a very complete and affordable solution. Since most trainings are no more than 20 minutes a month, it keeps user participation higher than having to do a multi-hour course once or twice a year.

We have really found value in how InfoSec IQ provides data feedback on potential professional development needs, as well as the timely and automated nature of what is provided to staff upon falling prey to phishing simulations. We really appreciate the user friendliness that is afforded to our staff as most are still in their infancy of identifying cyber threats.

It was easy to implement into the business and within less than a day all elements were in place to ensure a positive multi year program.

Customer success reps are brilliant and very knowledgeable on the system to ensure internal requirements are met.

Infosec is well suited for any company that fears their sensitive information, or their clients sensitive information could potentially be compromised. It helps every team member be aware of what phishing and scam methods are out there and how to avoid them. It also helps remote workers learn how to protect their data.

If the company is very small, the Infosec IQ solution might be a little overkill. However, for a medium to large company, I think Infosec IQ is a great tool for providing cybersecurity training, reporting, and assessment testing for all employees. Based on the information gathered during training, testing, etc., it allows the cybersecurity manager to focus on what employees need additional training or potential weak spots in the current training. This is important information to report to senior leadership. It also serves to meet cybersecurity awareness training that may be a compliance requirement for customer contracts, governmental standards, etc.

If your in an environment where there is no educational training for users regarding cyber threats, i think InfoSec is a great option to consider.

Infosec is well suited for a school environments in which the teacher's time is most valuable to the students in the classroom. We did not want a program that was going to be so in-depth that the teachers would feel overwhelmed by having to complete the training. By having shorter training sessions the teachers can get the necessary training while not taking time away from the most important people in the school, the students. The phishing simulations are very similar in which if a teacher fails a simulation email the follow-up training is short, but is effective in showing the teacher what he or she could have done differently next time.

We had a third party email sender get compromised. About a dozen users who deal with this individual all got the exact same phishing email within 10 seconds of each other. Every single user knew from our test sims that this was suspicious (no CC's, no BCC's, etc.) and they all reported the email as phishing. This really makes a difference in our real world use, before our phishing sims at least one of those dozen would have likely clicked!

Infosec IQ is a great tool for an organization, like ours, that requires everyone to participate in certain training sessions. Scheduling such training sessions is a very convenient feature, that Infosec IQ provides. Built-in reporting allows the IT department to stay up-to-date on the participation levels and act accordingly.
It's hard to tell where it's less appropriate to be applied. With all the security threats evolving every day, security awarness is no longer an option. It's something that needs to be done at any organization to keep the staff educated and prevent possible damages. Infosec IQ is a great tool for that.

I already do recommend it to others. It is absolutely fantastic for the annual compliance training. It has many other great pieces as well that I have not had the chance to use yet. But I do hope to use many other features in the future. There are many more resources to be tapped.

In the educational world it has been very benificial to raise awareness of scam and phishing email traffic and what to look for in emails. It also has given us quantifiable data to use with our staff on how well we have raised their awareness of potential threats. The fact that it automates training for staff is a bonus.

I have recommended this to small businesses and academics. This tool is perfect for new learners and easy to follow.
I have also utilized this tool during my graduate program at Penn State.

I generally like Infosec IQ. The features that are offered suit my organization's needs. Support is quick to help and I like the customization and control we get for PHISHING campaigns.

The onboarding team is very friendly and happy to explain how the platform works and guide you through the settings. The awareness programs are very interesting because in security, mostly the weakest link is the people. Infosec IQ is also a great tool that educates and informs the people working inside the network.

[Infosec IQ has a] great introduction to several compliance requirements. Would enjoy seeing a bit more in the area of possible secure coding best practices or point of sales terminals.

Since we are only using the awareness training, I can only speak to that option. I feel the training is well thought out and presented in a reasonable length of time so as to not lose the attention of the employee watching the video.

Feedback from staff has be positive, they get a quick break from their work and learn about something different. The vast scale of training modules and information available is stagging. This gives us the option to always change the training up between being professional and having a little more fun with the choose your own adventure interactive training. Upper management can use the dashboard to pull all kinds of statistics about the training and which staff aren't completing it. Groups can be configured so that if staff fail or don't complete a training course then are automatically enrolled in the next one. Lots of little features that make the whole software really easy to use. The Staff at Infosec are always following up and are super friendly. They help with any problems quickly and always get back to you no matter how small an issue it is.

Infosec IQ is well suited to provide security awareness training to small and large organizations. The ease of use of the products enables a small team with limited time to set up campaigns that require little interaction once started. If you have departments within your organization that want to distribute their own training, they can have a suborganization created within the platform. This allows them to manage their campaigns and not have access to yours. I have not encountered any scenarios where this platform has been less appropriate.
