CyberHoot vs Hackiwi

CyberHoot is a web-based security awareness training service focused on phishing recognition and reducing human risk. HootPhish uses interactive scenarios to teach six indicators of malicious emails; AttackPhish sends realistic phishing messages and ranks individual and team performance. Dark Web Monitoring generates reports about exposed personal data and recommends protective actions. Autopilot runs awareness programs with minimal oversight, without daily logins or manual sending. CyberHoot integrates with EntraID and Google Workspace, while its enterprise offering lists an API and integrations with enterprise software and security infrastructure. It serves individuals, MSPs, businesses, education institutions, enterprises and partners. Individual training is free and includes six foundational videos, monthly video training and quarterly HootPhish training. The service has a free plan and a 30-day trial. Autopilot costs $125 a month and includes 50 users; listed tiered pricing ranges from $2.50 user/mo at a 50-user minimum to $1.00/user/m. CyberHoot states that it complies with CCPA, GDPR, PIPEDA and the Australian Privacy Act.

Hackiwi is a security platform for organisational training, phishing simulations, suspicious-message triage and exposure monitoring. Its video and written lessons include interactive knowledge checks; teams can assign learning paths and track completion. The public training library is free to browse without an account, and its content is licensed under CC-BY-4.0. Organisations with up to 20 users can use the full platform free. Phishing campaigns are available only to verified organisations and domains, and track opens, clicks and reports with safety gates and audit logs. Submitted credentials are not retained; only the event is recorded. Staff can forward suspicious messages from desktop or phone mail clients for automated classification and reputation checks. Exposure tools cover scope-locked OSINT, website scanning, dependency CVE tracking, domain monitoring and alerts for newly registered lookalike domains. Hackiwi runs on the web or on an organisation’s own infrastructure under AGPL-3.0. Its simulator is not offered to individuals or families, and organisations above 20 users pay for premium tooling.
