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.

• I'd like to see the feedback change a little when I get a question wrong on the test. It can be a little confusing, but certainly not a game-changer.

• 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.

I enjoyed the cybersecurity training provided by CyberHoot and felt that it had a lot to offer. Cybersecurity professionals, as well as non-cyber security professionals, would both benefit from the content. I've personally utilized several different platforms for security awareness training and feel that the content, presentation, videos, and gamification help CyberHoot to edge out the competition.

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

• I signed up for the individual training and found the content, training, and testing to be highly beneficial
• As an employee of a large financial institution I can see the value in the corporate offerings they have to proactively train and empower employees with cybersecurity knowledge.

• 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.
