Comparison of Security Awareness Training features of Product A and Product B
If emails are used for confidential communication, Hoxhunt is a HUGE benefit. I have caught myself feeling lax over emailing and clicking links. Hoxhunt makes you really evaluate safety and legitimacy of the emails that are received. We even have laughs about it at staff meetings where staff admit to getting "hoxhunted" and clicking a fake link.
SANS Security Awareness Training program would be well suited for a large organization that needs to develop multiple training programs with different courses based on the roles of the end users. It seemed a bit difficult at times to achieve simple setup processes because of the configurations tailored to larger, more complex organizations.
Training Packages - They cover a wide range of topics that spam emails, social media and physical security such as USB sticks
Achievements as incentives - The gaming style of collecting achievements and stars for reporting emails or completing training incentivizes people to engage in a consistent and enthusiastic way.
Training Emails - They are able to replicate phishing emails in a realistic way, so it isn't easy to spot straight away meaning we now look at every email with a critical eye which makes us safer.
More training opportunities - The Hoxhunt page itself only has a few training modules which I have completed already
An even spicier spicy mode - Scammers are always evolving, so I want to be able to identify the toughest phishing attempts.
Eliminate "missed" emails. Sometimes I don't read my inbox right away. I don't think emails should count as "missed" just because I didn't report it within a few days.
it is very easy to use. it is clear and provides information as to why the type of email is one to look out for. It automatically takes you to the required information when you have spotted that it is a Hoxhunt email.
Symantec was something I used in my previous company, it had some issues once in a while where I had to re-generate the code for my new ID. I know its for over all protection, but if I didn't have my phone that day, I'd be unable to log in. Hoxhunt helps that way as there is a SSO authentication and needs the fingerprint, I guess it works different for different companies based on their regulations and privacy protection. Haven't really used any other tool like this
We actually are currently migrating to Proofpoint Security Awareness Training because of its integration with the Proofpoint email filter. This will allow us to target specific users who are clicking on bad emails with specific training material. We have used KnowBe4 in the past as well, but it was rather costly compared to SANS Security Awareness Training and Proofpoint. SANS Security Awareness Training seems to be the least easy-to-use interface from an administrative perspective compared to the other two.
I have been able to identify and report 3 real scam emails thanks to Hoxhunt.
Unfortunately I have no data of the overall company's benefit with regards to the use of Hoxhunt.
The training has also been helpful to me in my personal email. I think that helps with work productivity, because I haven't been in the situation where I'm worrying about having been scammed outside of work.
