In their own words

Hoxhunt

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. Training combines short lessons and interactive exercises with automated enrollment, reminders and completion tracking. 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.
