In their own words
Cofense PhishMe
Cofense PhishMe is a web-based phishing simulation and security awareness training platform for organizations. Its simulations draw on real phishing data and can model smishing, vishing, and QR-code phishing to measure employee readiness and identify training gaps. Training content and reinforcement can be targeted to areas where employees need more practice. Reporting and analytics track performance and risk, while one-click reporting feeds a global intelligence network. PhishMe includes phishing simulations, risk scoring, a phish reporting button, and automated training. Data travels over HTTPS and is encrypted at rest using AES-256. Simulation data includes click-related statistics, while data entered by employees is not collected or stored. Controls include role-based configuration, auditing, and multi-factor authentication; Enterprise also supports SAML 2.0 single sign-on. Cofense says its SOC 2 Type 2 certification covers PhishMe, with the report available through a sales representative under an NDA. Hosting locations include Ashburn, Montreal, Frankfurt, Sydney, and Tokyo; the Free edition is hosted only in Ashburn. The free plan costs nothing.
