What traditional tools miss — and how Hoxhunt fixes it

With outdated approaches

Invest substantial time to run just a few awareness and phishing campaigns per year, each with an endless list of manual tasks.

Phishing campaigns are one-size-fits-all so they don’t fit employees' unique learning needs or correlate with real-world attacks.

Struggle to get employees to participate in training because they’re dull and punitive in nature, resulting in a weak security culture.

Training results rarely correlate with reality, making it hard to deliver data-driven results and communicate value to management.

With Hoxhunt

Automate training creation and delivery, which saves time and unlocks high-frequency campaigns for continuous practice.

Personalize training for every employee based on role, location, skill level, and more to better prepare employees for actual attacks.

Frequently asked questions

What sets Hoxhunt apart from traditional security awareness training and phishing training software vendors?

We go beyond awareness and knowledge by driving training paths to each employee. With this unique personalized approach, we deliver up to 40 times higher engagement rates than anyone else in the industry. High program engagement means high business impact. Unlike traditional vendors, we show business impact beyond simulation performance by measuring your employees' real-world risk-reducing behavior, like reporting real phishing emails.

What are the main differences between Hoxhunt’s phishing training and phishing training in KnowBe4, Proofpoint and Cofense?

KnowBe4, Proofpoint and Cofense require security managers to invest substantial time and effort into maintaining and running a phishing training program. Campaign creation and setup is a manual task, making it difficult to personalize training at scale to fit employees' learning needs. Results of these traditional security programs rarely correlate with reality, making it hard to deliver data-driven results and communicate program value to management. Our platform, on the other hand, fully automates phishing training creation and delivery, including optimization and personalization using AI. Hoxhunt automatically measures the real-world behaviors of the employees, which means Security Managers can finally lead with trustworthy data and communicate results that correlate with reality.

How can Hoxhunt help me with real phishing attacks that land in my employees' inboxes?

Hoxhunt can analyze and instantly train employees on real emails outside of the training. When an employee report suspicious emails that are not part of phishing training, Hoxhunt Instant Feedback analyzes and classifies the email in real-time, an gives an assessment of the message with guidance if it’s safe to interact with the message. Employees don’t need to wait for a security ticket to be resolved before continuing with their work. This helps avoid situations where employees feel like they need to choose between security and doing their work.
