CybeReady unveils Advanced Data-Driven Analytics

 With PhishCage, security professionals can see exactly where the employee security risks lie, which groups in the organization are more prone to policy violations and how to better dedicate resources to mitigate these risks. The enhanced training platform has been optimized with ML- enabled processes that quickly analyze and interpret high volumes of behavioral data to be used for combatting the dramatic rise in phishing attacks.

According to the Anti-Phishing Working Group’s latest Phishing Activity Trends Report

1,270,883 total phishing attacks were observed in Q3, 2022, a new record and the worst quarter for phishing that the APWG has ever observed. It was also noted in the report that Business Email Compromise (BEC) attacks continued to be troublesome, and the number of wire transfer BEC attacks in Q3 increased by 59%, reinforcing the need for proactive solutions against this problematic situation.

CybeReady’s vision to deliver actionable security insights to CISOs has now been realized with a detailed organizational risk profile that reveals progress and trends in employee culture and the evolution of security-focused behaviors over time. This active reporting allows security and risk professionals to see a change in security culture, thanks to the active reporting available through PhishCage.

As of this announcement, PhishCage is available as part of CybeReady’s BLAST (Behavioral Phishing simulations & Training) product offering. The PhishCage reporting solution is based on an integration with the Microsoft Office 365 add-on and provides data regarding employee reporting habits. The new reporting solution provides enables employees to proactively participate in keeping the organization phish-free – turning employees into security champions. It enables CybeReady-trained employees to help protect the organization from malicious email activity by reporting these emails to CybeReady's Analysis Center for further analysis and mitigation - justifying resource allocation for the awareness training effort.
