KnowBe4 PhishER has saved us $100K's
- The biggest ROI would come from prevention - a recent scam cost our company over $100K - and by proactively training our employees to not fall victim to these types of scams, and better yet be the first line of prevention is huge.
- Employees are actively reporting suspected phishing emails so we are able to "Rip" them from inboxes before there is even an opportunity for others to open them.

Verified User
- Isolation of email threats with the integration of Phish Alert Button
- A more educated and alert user base when facing phishing attempts and attacks
- It has greatly increased phishing / security awareness by our staff by having a designated button & process for reporting phishing emails
- It provides greater protection through the ability to delete emails from multiple recipients even if not all of them reported the email
- It saves time for me to have to evaluate whether or not an email reported is a real threat through the ML/AI/VirusTotal scores

PhishNet for Phishy Phishes
- Before PhishER I had no tangible means to help our users figure out what email was or was not a phishing email. To date PhishER has helped me catch over 7,500 phishing emails, this year.
- it has been a good indication that employees are learning and applying the knowledge they have from the trainings they get on information security

KnowBe4 PhishER - Rapid and efficiency phishing response
- In the past month, we have responded to over 500 reported emails. Previously this would have required highly manual processes for investigating, blocking, quarantining, or returning to user, but thanks to KnowBe4 PhishER this process is now highly automated and has gone from multiple processes in multiple systems to just a few clicks in one.
- This increase in efficiency allows us to free up IT resources, it now takes just one person to respond to emails a few minutes each day instead of multiple team members monitoring an inbox.
- Additionally, built-in automation gives us confidence that we can respond to reported emails on our own schedule, instead of needing to constantly be vigilant for high-risk malicious emails that we need to act on immediately.
- The ability to quarantine emails has been incredibly helpful, this was not functionality we had before, but now we can quickly remove malicious emails from everyone's inbox. In one instance, we had an email land in over 80 inboxes, which we removed just a few minutes after it was delivered.

KnowBe4 PhishER Great Time Saver.
- The amount of time responding to phishing emails has been reduced signifanctly from several hours per week to less than a hour.
- When an indcident does occur the ability to track from email to person to computer system within sentinel has been a great addition to remediation.
- With the phish alert being enabled in desktop and mobile outlook it makes it very easy for employees to report emails early and often. So even though the amount of time to respond has been reduced we have seen a large increase in the number of emails reported.
