Hackiwi vs Hoxhunt

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.

Hoxhunt provides security awareness and phishing training for organizations seeking to reduce human cyber risk. Its simulations can reach employees by email, SMS, phone call or Teams and can reflect context such as department and location.

The library includes more than 300 modules and regulatory tracks for PCI DSS, HIPAA, DORA and GDPR. Content Studio turns organizational policies and existing materials into custom training in under 60 seconds; administrators can review and edit the result. Hoxhunt also clusters reported email threats and supports automated remediation integrations. It supports Microsoft Exchange environments, including on-premise and Microsoft 365, as well as Google Workspace. Sign-on options include Microsoft Entra ID, AD FS, Google Workspace, Okta, Ping Identity and OneLogin, plus other SAML 2.0-compatible providers. Supported environments vary by email provider and client; native Mail apps on Windows and macOS are unsupported, and Outlook mobile support is limited to Exchange Online users. Pricing is by employee and available on request.
