Testimonials

See who's talking about Cyberhoot

"The ease of setup and use for both administrators and users was immediately apparent. The automated training and phishing awareness features are major time savers for HR and IT teams”

Natalie Ripple, Redzone Technologies, System Analyst

"CyberHoot lets us access expert cybersecurity guidance without hiring a full-time specialist."

Chris McKay, LMRPA, Vice President, Partner

"Easy to implement and get immediate results. Through CyberHoot, I can single-handedly support a company with 500 people in training and policy governance with a minimum of effort. More employees now send me phishing emails they receive, stating 'this is a phishing email' as opposed to just clicking on them."

Tim Hurman, Single Digits, System Administrator

“Using CyberHoot was one of the best decisions we made regarding SAT. Fully automated, training is interesting, and staff participation is high compared to other vendors.”

Michael Gibby, SEQ IT Services, Founder & Managing Director

"CyberHoot has been a game-changer for us - simple to deploy, highly effective in raising awareness, and a great fit for MSPs looking to strengthen client security postures without adding complexity."

Ahmed Albalooshi, Advantari Digital Solutions, CEO
