I was able to learn the platform quickly and implement the solution quickly to resolve the email security issues Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hook Security?

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Hook Security solving and how is that benefiting you? We currently are relying on hook security as a solution to a requirement for ransom ware and hacker insurance.

The testing, training, and tracking is all handled by Hook which makes deploying this very simple. It integrated easily with our O365 deployment. It also is easy to add/remove users with this integration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hook Security? The training videos are useful, but not always custom to your specific deployment which can create some confusion for staff. But overall, clear messaging and guidelines. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Hook Security solving and how is that benefiting you? The monthly phishing emails are the best training you can do for staff. Despite countless "memos" and "classroom training" staff continued to fall victim to phishing attacks. With the monthly training, now our staff are on alert and have learned how to handle these threats. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The fact that I do not have to create phishing templates myself, everything is automated, and the reporting and subsequent training that follows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Hook Security? Most of the templates are not relevant to my geographic area. For example Chase or Bank of America is not relevant where I am. Of all the templates, perhaps only 20-30% are relavant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Hook Security solving and how is that benefiting you? We are meeting our expected goal of teaching our personnel now to identify phishing attempts.

But overall, Hook accomplishes the basics of what we need from a secuirty awareness product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
