Kaspersky Security Awareness vs. Sophos Phish Threat

We receieve a lot of emails per day. And I mean a Lot. Said that, this
program has been useful because it shows how to analyse emails and
detect possible phisihing attacks. The knowledge of emails is pretty big
and means you are always up to date in terms of scam emails. For daily
use it's pretty useful.

If you're looking for a tool to maximize digital productivity without hindering the effectiveness of your workforce, Sophos is a great tool. It quickly & safely manages the threat level across all of our digital channels to reduce the potential engagement with fishy characters or websites that might present vulnerabilities.

• I wish we could attach a custom file to the phishing
• I wish there was a way to edit the return screen when a user clicks on the phishing.
• I would like there to be an integration with Google Workspace, to add a feature to Gmail, for the user to report as phishing, like there is for 365.

Incentivized

• The templates can be quite basic, they are more suited to Gsuite than Office 365

The platform gains new features and its UI is always being updated, the user's training and phishing history is a differentiator. Filters make it much easier to search for users, and we can add new fields to include different sectors and business units.

It is easy to use and setup. You can schedule the Phish email test to be
sent out in the future or right away. You can also send to all users in
your list as well as stagger so all users do not get the email at the
same time and tell each other there is a test going on

Support is solid but not spectacular. While I haven't used support for Phish Threat specifically, this is a general rating for Sophos' support across the board. It could be easier to find the FAQ or other information I need, but when I've needed to reach out to support they've been good to work with.

For the cost-benefit, we chose Kaspersky Security Awareness, we got a trial with many licenses, this was decisive in the purchase, as we were able to do a phishing simulation and test our maturity in relation to our users.

We selected Phish Threat because it was an easy to use add-on for our existing Sophos solution. By having it integrated into our existing antivirus, email, and encryption suite it allowed for a single pane of glass management in addition to robust total reporting of what users and computers we need to be most concerned about.

• For compliance, we were looking for a tool that covered cybersecurity awareness training and phishing campaigns.
• We studied other tools, but the price of phishing campaigns alone was too high. This tool integrated everything.
• Our target in phishing campaigns was less than 4% of clicks, in more than 2 years using the platform, we went from 25% to 2% in click percentages in targeted and general campaigns.

Incentivized

• A lot of awareness of phishing emails has resulted in fewer attacks.
• Fewer phishing attacks = less money used on tracing the outcomes of an attack.
• Happier clients who know we're very focused on our security and infrastructure.
