Presents real-world phishing scenarios that have helped increase our overall resilience to cyber attacks
The area where we could probably use more attention is the involvement of CybeReady with us. It would help if a technical account manager were more actively reaching out and making sure that we are using the tool to its full potential. On the one hand, it would probably take a little bit more of our time. But on the other hand, if it were very targeted and controlled by a technical account manager, it could be very useful and take very little time. The kind of scenario I'm thinking about is where a CybeReady account manager would call and say, "Hey, I looked through your settings and, based on the numbers I'm seeing, maybe you guys can turn this on and turn this off, or adjust it this way or that way." I go in there and pull the information and I use its presentations, and that's useful. And they do periodically send out reports to summarize things. But in the world of automation, I still think you need a little bit of human touch. That's the part that's missing, just a little bit.

Training has reduced phishing incidents and builds user responsibility across our clients
I can give you a quick specific example of how I use Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training with my clients or internally; we deploy it internally as well, as we are an IT company. It is really important that we ourselves and our engineers can spot the difference, because just because we are IT literate does not mean that we can always spot the difference. Or we can spot the difference, but the hesitation to click on something and just check what comes in matters. We have had customers experience significant breaches where they sent a lot of money or information or had loss of business due to these types of attacks. Avoiding that is where I would say we have had the most impact, seeing a reduction in those types of incidents happening. Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has positively impacted my organization as we can see a decline from those clients with incidents regarding cybersecurity. There are a lot fewer tickets about suspicious emails, and a lot more of a positive understanding from users about what an attack looks like. In terms of tools for us, it helps our relationship with customers. We can send them reports that are good criteria and good information we can give them to show how we are protecting them. This adds value there. Using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training alongside the other Huntress products, ITDR and EDR, is beneficial. It is a good product that is easy to deploy alongside them. I think the best feature of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is the fact that it runs itself. Many IT companies want to offer these services, but they do not really have experience or they do not have the time and energy to keep the quality going, or you do put the effort in and it becomes unprofitable. Huntress recommends the courses and sets the criteria for you and it can all be managed. I really appreciate how the emails come in and look current and realistic, not obvious spam. I appreciate that the course content will change depending on how much a user has failed. If they just clicked on the email or entered information, it will tell them what they can do better next time and give them extra training. You do not have to worry about that; it is all automatic. It is also made in such a way that it is keeping up to date, I believe with information from Huntress's SOC team. The up-to-date content reflects what people are seeing in the wild, so you know you are getting really new content.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"All of CybeReady's features are valuable. They work together and complement each other. The campaigns, and the training behind the specific campaigns, are the starting point. But the Continuous Awareness Bites program is also very important. They share what the correct behavior should have been for our users who clicked on a link or downloaded an attachment during a phishing campaign."
"CybeReady's 'phishing' emails manipulate you to open an email. If you do open the email, you are forwarded to a tip that explains how you should behave and how to recognize a phishing email. This is one of the main features of the training provided."
"The product automatically adapts to users and how adept they are at spotting phishing emails. If somebody is doing very well and is not clicking on the phishing simulation emails, then it will send them emails that are harder to spot."
"Overall, it broadens the way people engage with security across the board because they are used to being told off and that they are not doing the right sort of things. Whereas, CybeReady really helped move that conversation forward into a positive lens, allowing people to see how they can take part and their role within security. Also, that it's okay, because this is training, a learning point, how you can continue, how you can cope, and how you move forward. This really helps build people's confidence in recognizing phishing, understanding what it is, and how to cope with it, all of which are important."
"CybeReady has this uncanny ability to fit its simulations to reality. The simulations that CybeReady prepares are refreshed on a monthly basis... They could be news-related, for example, related to COVID, or elections. They might be related to the time of the year, such as taxes or bonus payments and the like... It's evolving to what it's seeing out there, but in a good way."
"Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has positively impacted my organization as we can see a decline from those clients with incidents regarding cybersecurity."
"I like that it provides a customizable learning pathway, allowing me to both use preset tracks and customize them if I wish."
"I rate the solution nine out of ten."
"I appreciate the interactive and engaging style of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training."
 

Cons

"The area where we could probably use more attention is the involvement of CybeReady with us. It would help if a technical account manager were more actively reaching out and making sure that we are using the tool to its full potential."
"We have the generic reporting that comes out so we can download that at any time or at the end of the three month campaign. So, we have two generic reports. If we could section up the data in multiple, different ways, then we could create a report from that instead of just those two options. That would be helpful."
"CybeReady is still getting used to working with really big companies, which is the category that we are in."
"One area that might be improved is making their emails more visually attractive to make them more convincing. It might depend on the email relay in the organization. Maybe it's cutting out some of the features that come with the email. I don't know if it's their problem or our problem, but sometimes the emails don't look convincing enough."
"One point that CybeReady could improve on is... the people assigned to each client to help the client correctly interpret the KPIs. In our case, we were not so happy with the person that was assigned to us. She didn't provide much more for us than we saw ourselves."
"It is somewhat confusing at first, especially for onboarding. The existing complexity is partly because the product wasn't built from the ground up by Huntress, which might contribute to certain elements lacking Huntress's typical simplicity."
"It is somewhat confusing at first, especially for onboarding."
"Some of the trainings can be quite silly, or I may not want to administer those trainings."
"Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training could be improved by varying the domains that you send from."
