What is KnowBe4 PhishER?
PhishER is a platform for managing the high volume of potentially malicious email messages reported by users. With automatic prioritization of emails, PhishER aims to help InfoSec and Security Operations team cut through the inbox noise and respond to the most dangerous threats more quickly.
PhishER is a web-based platform with critical worksteam functionality that serves as a phishing emergency room to identify and respond to user-reported messages. With PhishER, users are able to automate the workstream of 90% of reported emails that are not threats, freeing up incident response resources.
PhishER is available as a stand-alone product or as an optional add-on for KnowBe4 customers that want to automatically prioritize and manage potentially malicious messages that were reported through the KnowBe4 Phish Alert Button. PhishER Plus is an upgraded subscription level that includes all of the features from PhishER with additional enhancements and AI-validated crowdsourced data. PhishER Plus was developed to help supercharge an organization’s email security defenses. It does this by automatically blocking phishing attacks that traditional Security Email Gateways (SEGs) miss and removes these missed threats from users’ inboxes.

(1-25 of 69)KnowBE4 PhishER Review.
- Categorization of suspect emails to Benign, SPAM and Threat.
- Integration to VirusTotal, Ticketing platform.
- Smart Dashboards.
- Canned auto - response email to end-users.
- AI/ML algorithm could be improved to reduce false positives and increase auto-resolved suspect emails.
KnowBe4 PhishER - security made simple
- Automatically evaluates reported emails
- Once it determines a threat, it pulls the email from all other mailboxes and quarantines them
- One button block list can be set up for repeat senders
- If an email is determined to be clean, a button to notify the reporter that it was clean and that they could find it in the deleted folder, with reference to the email would be nice.
KnowBe4 PhishER Review
- Learns which emails are phishing and which are legitimate
- Customizable emails back to associates who report spam or clean emails as phishing
- Clear view into what has been reported
- I haven't found a good use case for Rooms feature yet
- I haven't had to build any custom rules yet, either
KnowBe4 PhishER works for me!
- User Interface is easy to use.

- In PhishRip portion would like to see more details regarding the message that is being ripped.

Great training and testing tool

- Real world examples and frequent updates
- Communicative account managers
- It can be a bit tedious to see specific results of phishing test (per user results)
KnowBe4 PhishER - an easy and robust application
- Customer Support; especially when we brough the application on board. The attention to detail, instruction, and help KnowBe4 team gave us is quite good!
- A wide variety of trainings, over a multitude of topics.
- Phishing Tests; "set it and forget" with metrics!
- For start-up biotech/pharmaceuticals, I think KnowBe4 PhishER is the perfect addition!
KnowBe4 PhishER has saved us $100K's
- Simulated Phishing Campaigns
- End-User Training
- Security Analysis
- Ability to call back threat emails
- When customizing simulated phishing campaign emails the ability to add a upload a custom image would be helpful.
- Some of the menu options take a bit to get used to - not as intuitive as I'd like. You select a user, then you can choose from a different menu to add them to a group. Once you know, it is not difficult - but not as easy as it should be.

Phishing Hero!
- Phish Alert Button works well on suspicious email reporting. So in case of any phishing attack, our users can report the email directly to KnowBe4 PhishER dashboard and our team can take care of it then.
- The PhishML feature automatically categories the reported emails based on email characteristics like Clean/Spam/Threat, so it makes our security job easy.
- The PhishRIP feature is helping us to remove a suspicious email from all user's outlooks in just a few clicks and with this feature, we are building a strong security posture.
- KnowBe4 PhishER integration with VirusTotal is helping us to scan any URL and documents that seems suspicious to us.
- A detailed analysis of reported emails by using AI techniques.
- Automatic quarantine of 100% sure phishing emails without any human interaction.
- Reporting Emails
- Blocking Domains and Senders
- Virus Total Built In
- Discussion with other Admins
- Ability to discuss with User (Not Just Admins)
- Ability to Block Senders and Domains for Longer than 60 days
- Ability to view information such as IP Address, Estimated Location at a glance
PhishER - Don't Phone Home Without It.
- The machine based learning does a great job of correctly identifying safe vs. malicious emails.
- PhishRIP does an excellent job of finding and quarantining similar emails from other users accounts.
- The reports give us a real time insight into trends and campaigns launched by bad actors.
- Somtimes the PAB (or Phish Hook) has to have its permissions revalidated. This is a quick fix, but takes some knowledge.
- I honestly can't think of any other shortcomings at this time.
- See #1
- The platform offers a simple, one-click reporting button for end-users.
- Allows teachers to report suspicious emails without needing technical expertise.
- The IT department is able to review all suspicious email in one dashboard.
- Enhancing the automated response capabilities, such as directly initiating remediation processes or integrating with other cybersecurity tools, could further streamline the threat management process.
- Implementing a feedback system where users can be informed about the outcome of their reported emails might encourage more proactive engagement.
- the reporting tool is not as streamlined on mobile devices as it is on desktops. Enhancing mobile functionality would be beneficial
PhishER Protection that Works
- Blocks potential malicious emails
- Easy to use and setup
- Improves efficiency for my staff
- Improved metrics
- Improved dashboard
- Better reporting
KnowBe4 PhishER Review
- Flag Phish Emails
- Allow administrative action on flag
- Automated action on flagged items classified as phishing
- Phish Alert Button is easy for our staff to use & it is being used frequently
- The ML, AI, & VirusTotal analytics on reported emails are very helpful in evaluating whether an email is truly a threat or not
- The Phish RIP feature is useful for pulling phishing emails out of other staff members inboxes when a phishing email went to multiple people but not everyone reported it
- PhishER+ is a great proactive tool for keeping out known threats
- PhishRIP is successful at pulling most emails out of inboxes but sometimes it is not despite running the query in multiple ways. I will run a message trace in Microsoft Exchange & find 10 emails but then sometimes I am only able to find 8 to delete w/ PhishRIP. If it could somehow integrate with Microsoft Exchange Message Trace to make it easier to pull them all that would be helpful
- I would like to see a way for staff to report Smishing messages from their phone
- For PhishER+ I would like to the option for entries onto the BlockList to remain permanently. I know there is a limit to how many can be added but that limit is being increased. In Microsoft Blocklist if you manually add one you have the option to have it never be removed.
PhishNet for Phishy Phishes
- Identifies potential phishing attempts using the different filters and Virus total.
- Ripping phishing email from users email box.
- There are many times phishing emails come in that I want to rip but cannot do to how the emails come in. The headers, subject line, receiver or sender vary slightly where the system cannot distinguish between the differences.
- automation tasks for known false positives
- providing information for phishing email determination
- informative dashboard
- setting up automated tasks
- rooms is not really understood
- customizable reports

- More powerful PhishRIP

- Streamlines the "this email looks weird" process that bogged down our Helpdesk
- Let's us quickly remove emails from everyone's inboxes
- Make a direct link to login, right now I have to login the console and then click on the PhishER button
- After you submit a PhishRip, there is no way to review the parameters of the PhishRip in my experience. I would like to go back and look at the results in relation to the parameters that I used to create the PhishRip
- The PhishML is a little lacking, at least for us. In my experience, we were getting alot of false negatives for "Clean" that we had to turn that one off completely. It does good with "Spam" or "Threat" though, which is more important
