Cofense Triage vs. Hoxhunt

The tool is very helpful in improving Phishing detection capabilities as it streamlines the process of analyzing user reports a lot. Besides it has a built-in mechanism of rating reporters(end-users) based on their historical performance. Downside - tool requires continuous resource investment to deliver best result. Tool is not helping too much in improving user-education, because automated response process is not immediate and is prone to errors

If emails are used for confidential communication, Hoxhunt is a HUGE benefit. I have caught myself feeling lax over emailing and clicking links. Hoxhunt makes you really evaluate safety and legitimacy of the emails that are received. We even have laughs about it at staff meetings where staff admit to getting "hoxhunted" and clicking a fake link.

• Separating links and attachments contained in the email, and checking to see if they are known malicious.
• Clustering like emails to save time when responding.
• Providing risks scores with each cluster to give an estimate on which clusters should be addressed first.

• Training Packages - They cover a wide range of topics that spam emails, social media and physical security such as USB sticks
• Achievements as incentives - The gaming style of collecting achievements and stars for reporting emails or completing training incentivizes people to engage in a consistent and enthusiastic way.
• Training Emails - They are able to replicate phishing emails in a realistic way, so it isn't easy to spot straight away meaning we now look at every email with a critical eye which makes us safer.

• YARA rules, while the functionality is fantastic I've found that the documentation can be a bit confusing. Although, that might just be my personal experience.
• Rare glitches make the send notification button unusable. This can be remediated by navigating to a different report, but [it] is a bit of a pain in the moment.
• I would like to see a dark mode get added as well, but that's obviously a tertiary concern.

• More training opportunities - The Hoxhunt page itself only has a few training modules which I have completed already
• An even spicier spicy mode - Scammers are always evolving, so I want to be able to identify the toughest phishing attempts.
• Eliminate "missed" emails. Sometimes I don't read my inbox right away. I don't think emails should count as "missed" just because I didn't report it within a few days.

it is very easy to use. it is clear and provides information as to why the type of email is one to look out for. It automatically takes you to the required information when you have spotted that it is a Hoxhunt email.

The other product had a lot of fails on the auto-processing and did not integrate well with our current environment. One issue had to do with the way it sends the submissions to its processing engine—our email gateway configuration would have blocked this traffic. I also did not like the user interface.

Symantec was something I used in my previous company, it had some issues once in a while where I had to re-generate the code for my new ID. I know its for over all protection, but if I didn't have my phone that day, I'd be unable to log in. Hoxhunt helps that way as there is a SSO authentication and needs the fingerprint, I guess it works different for different companies based on their regulations and privacy protection. Haven't really used any other tool like this

• The biggest impact has been the time saved.
• My company had nothing of this sort previously and we were stuck trying to make use of free resources and doing things very manually. Triage was a huge life saver in this area.
• The ability to quickly respond to several users at once has been a great help.

• I have been able to identify and report 3 real scam emails thanks to Hoxhunt.
• Unfortunately I have no data of the overall company's benefit with regards to the use of Hoxhunt.
• The training has also been helpful to me in my personal email. I think that helps with work productivity, because I haven't been in the situation where I'm worrying about having been scammed outside of work.
