The human phishing defense solutions provider, PhishMe announced it has been named as the leader in Gartner’s October 2017 Magic Quadrant for Security Awareness Computer-Based Training. PhishMe has been recognized as a leader for two consecutive years and is positioned highest in ability to execute.
Over 90 percent of breaches are attributed to phishing emails targeting employees, and businesses are increasingly aware of the need to make employees an active part of their cyber defense. PhishMe enables businesses to build resilient employees that also provide critical intelligence.
“We are thrilled to be acknowledged as a leader by Gartner for two years in a row. We believe our placement in the Leaders quadrant validates our commitment to the ongoing innovation that has allowed us to evolve from awareness training into a proven phishing defense and incident response solution aimed at stopping phishing attacks in progress.” said Rohyt Belani, CEO and Co-Founder at PhishMe.
To protect against advanced phishing attacks coming from motivated attackers, many modern enterprises rely on PhishMe – including more than 50 percent of the Fortune 100 – as the foundation of their security programs.
“We recognize that threat actors are growing in sophistication and capabilities, and we want to enable businesses to take an offensive approach to security by using the intel from end users to stop phishing attacks dead in their tracks,” said Aaron Higbee, CTO and Co-Founder at PhishMe.
