Infosec IQ vs. MetaCompliance

If the company is very small, the Infosec IQ solution might be a little overkill. However, for a medium to large company, I think Infosec IQ is a great tool for providing cybersecurity training, reporting, and assessment testing for all employees. Based on the information gathered during training, testing, etc., it allows the cybersecurity manager to focus on what employees need additional training or potential weak spots in the current training. This is important information to report to senior leadership. It also serves to meet cybersecurity awareness training that may be a compliance requirement for customer contracts, governmental standards, etc

MetaCompliance is well suited to be managed by a small IT team. It is also well suited for companies that need to provide their employees with security awareness training. It has the added benefits for companies that may not have a formal policy approval process, MetaCompliance's policy management modules will help there. Lastly, the capabilities of the phishing simulation could be used by any organization that does not have a program in place for phishing.

They continue to work on the interface but there are still weird places where you have to hover to see options come up, weird navigation sometimes. Administering is not my favorite part of it. Need to increase their capability for uploading your own training.

We've gotten great help when we needed it. When our IT guy left who managed security, we had limited knowledge internally with all of the configuration and implementation. Support helped get us running quickly. They spent an hour or so with the new IT person and they hit the ground running. That was super easy.
