This solution addresses the growing concern of human error in cybersecurity, offering a structured approach to enhance employee awareness and resilience against phishing attacks. Targeted primarily at businesses of all sizes, PhishingBox serves as an essential tool for IT and security teams looking to bolster their defenses against cyber threats. The platform is particularly beneficial for organizations that recognize the importance of employee education in maintaining a robust security posture. By simulating real-world phishing scenarios, PhishingBox allows organizations to assess their employees' susceptibility to such attacks, thereby identifying areas that require improvement. One of the standout features of PhishingBox is its ability to run customizable phishing simulations. Organizations can create realistic phishing emails that mimic common tactics used by cybercriminals, enabling them to gauge how employees respond to these threats.

In addition to phishing simulations, PhishingBox offers targeted training modules designed to educate employees about various aspects of cybersecurity. These training sessions cover topics such as recognizing phishing attempts, understanding social engineering tactics, and implementing best practices for online security. The integration of training with simulation results ensures that employees receive personalized learning experiences based on their performance, which can significantly enhance knowledge retention and application in real-world situations. PhishingBox also integrates seamlessly with existing security stacks, making it a versatile addition to any organization's cybersecurity framework. This compatibility allows for streamlined implementation and management, ensuring that organizations can enhance their human risk management efforts without disrupting their current operations. By focusing on the human element of cybersecurity, PhishingBox empowers organizations to build a culture of security awareness, ultimately reducing the risk of successful phishing attacks and enhancing overall organizational resilience.

"Easy to Use"

4.5/5

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

PhishingBox has a simple interface and allows for easy training and phishing campaigns. Outlook reporting integration has allowed me to easily manage reports from my end users and keep them properly paranoid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

Automated campaigns work very well but require a large effort to maintain and keep in place. It would be nice if there were more complete templates available so that I can simply check a box and assign a group rather than build out the campaign each time. This is more a complaint about my own lack of time to manage it, but I know I can't be the only person who has limited time to dedicate to internal phishing campaigns.

"A honest review of PhishingBox SaaS."

5/5

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

I liked the ease of setting up the Phishing Campains; so easy a novice IT person can get going fast compared to over SaaS based phishing simulations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

The only thing I can think of the possible whitelisting of phishing domains. Sometimes you have to go back and adjust the Google or Microsoft platforms to allow emails to hit users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Chris, thank you for the feedback. We're in constant conversation with providers to ensure our domains remain active and deliverable and will continue to work to ensure domain reputation remains high. As domains are flagged by users directly to providers, it can impact domain integrity.

"Simple setup, great results"

4/5

The best feature of Phishing Box is how easy it is to configure and get up and running. Within 24 hours, we had a Phishing campaign configured, targeted education, and executed the Phishing campaign.

"Phishing Training/Simulations"

5/5

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

PhishingBox has dramatically increased our end users' awareness of what goes on behind the scenes of a phishing scam, and has taught them how to recognize scams on their own rather than forwarding everything to technology asking if it's legit or not. The platform is extremely easy to navigate and for users to set up campaigns with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

I can't find anything yet that would qualify as something I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4/5

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

the granular configuration for each project is very well made. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

interface is a bit complex but I don't think there is a way to make it simpler. the pricing is a bit higher than other options on the market. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhishingBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

automated phishing exercises. with the many templates the system has and the designated domains, makes it very easy to initiate a phishing campaign. I tried several times creating such a process manually with open sources and domain purchases. its just too much work. phishing box solves all of that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Phishing campaigns are extremely easy to setup through the use of their templates. Users are tracked and ones needing remediation are easily identified.

Phishing Box is intuitive and easy to use. The electronic reporting is also easy to use and keeps track of users' progress for training and for Phishing campaigns. We migrated to Phishing Box from KnowB4 and prefer Phishing Box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic phishing and training product that's easy to manage and deploy."

5/5

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

Selecting from a wide range of templates for phishing and training is a breeze, as well as customizing the experience for each user. Great graphics on each option and very easy to deploy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

Creating your own template can be tricky with the built-in functions, as it doesn't quite work the same as regular HTML coding. Having a "drag-and-drop" template option would make it even easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for your feedback, Tim! If you need any assistance building out templates or would like to request a certain template be added, let us know as it may be a template other customers are interested in as well and rise in priority when adding new content.
