More Arctic Wolf Managed Security Awareness Pros →

"The main thing is the overall report card. We get to tell the percentages of users who click on links and who don't click on links. We also get an overall score or risk score from them, which also helps us.""There are many valuable features. It's already deployed in the cloud, and you don't have to install anything. You just upload your users to the cloud and tweak something if needed. You can whitelist some servers to work with this properly. When everything is ready, you can start using the platform and its many automated features."

Cons
"Arctic Wolf Managed Security Awareness should have increased flexibility for creating any training."

More Arctic Wolf Managed Security Awareness Cons →

"It could be more localized for Ukrainian users. This platform is international, and it has a lot of material in different languages, but not in Ukrainian and Russian languages. There's plenty of different content updated regularly for English, French, and German users. They have a lot more information, and Ukrainian users also want more.""It can be more interactive with users. We want to put the users in different scenarios and let them make decisions. For example, instead of making users go through a video and then asking questions, it can have a video where they click on the scenarios and have to make decisions. It can maybe have something like a live simulation. It would be nice for users."

  • "I don't know the cost, but I believe we are paying yearly. We did like a three-year or five-year contract. I am not aware of any extra costs in addition to a standard licensing fee."
  • "Licensing is paid on a yearly basis. You can go to the official site to check their approximate pricing. It's based on the number of users or staff. It can vary from country to country, but for Ukraine, it works as it's stated on the site."

    Overview

    Delivered using the cloud-native Arctic Wolf® Platform, Managed Security Awareness® is the only security awareness training solution provided as a concierge service. We help organizations end the cyber risk of social engineering attacks and human error with a full-managed service, removing administrative burden from IT teams. More than training, Managed Security Awareness includes 24/7 account takeover monitoring, integrated phishing simulations, and awareness coaching. Arctic Wolf uses ongoing microlearning techniques and fresh content developed by our in-house team of highly trained security awareness experts to prepare employees to defend themselves and your organization from active cyber threats that cannot be prevented by existing security tools.

    Old school Security Awareness Training is static. It’s a one-time event without follow-up. KnowBe4's Kevin Mitnick Security Awareness Training starts with a baseline test to show the actual Phish-prone percentage of your users. Then it steps users through effective, interactive, on-demand browser-based training. As step three, you send frequent simulated phishing attacks to your employees to reinforce the training. This last feature, frequent simulated phishing attacks (we recommend at the very least once a month) really creates a change in behavior.
