Overall Satisfaction with Hoxhunt
Working in a field that requires confidentiality and clarity, it can be easy to become impacted by scammers or fake emails that sound like they are real. My organization is so huge that I don't know all employees nor their roles. Hoxhunt keeps you on your toes to ensure you think through if an email is valid or a potential scam. They've gotten me on a couple emails that sounded authentic. It has really caused me to pause and think prior to clicking links or going any further. Additionally, it's super fun to compete with colleagues using this program. They do a great job only showing people near your score (you earn higher scores for catching the scam emails without clicking any links) and in doing so, makes it fun to see just how high in the rankings you can go. I have sent screenshots to coworkers I do know who have similar scores as I do. They always get a laugh out of it. I highly recommend Hoxhunt.
Pros
- Keeps you engaged to spot fake emails.
- Causes users to second guess if the email is a legitimate email. It causes users to be much more cautious!
- Has friendly competition involved.
- Earn badges (shields) for correctly reporting and completing quizzes! It leaves you feeling rewarded for simply being careful and doing what you should be doing all along.
Cons
- The program has already developed and changed quite a bit since I began using it. I can't think of much else to critique at this moment.
- It has increased awareness around phishing scams.
- Resulted in employees being more on guard for fake emails.
