This has really kept the training fresh and the users engaged. We find this to be very important as the take rate greatly increases for user training campaigns which help get us to our goal of training 100% of our user to populate regularly. The smarter the overall user population is the more effective our security controls are.
We integrate users from our AD into the platform so that we can leverage existing identities when releasing campaigns and tracking metrics.
Take rate on the training campaigns; customer sat on the content and better results on the simulated phishing campaigns.
Very well suited for the casual user, general Cybersecurity awareness-type training. Less suited for highly technical individuals or organizations with high technical IQ users like a true technology or engineering type organization. Most of our users fall into the former category, so we find it highly effective for our organization.
