Vendor Information
Hoxhunt Security Behavior Platform Overview
Hoxhunt is a Human Risk Management (HRM) platform that transforms security awareness training through gamification and adaptive learning, automatically delivering personalized phishing simulations and bite-sized microtraining across email, Slack, and Microsoft Teams. Founded in 2016 in Helsinki by Mika Aalto, Karri Kurunmäki, Pasi Salo, and Pyry Åvist, Hoxhunt differentiates itself by using positive reinforcement—rewarding employees with points, badges, and leaderboard rankings for successfully identifying and reporting threats—rather than punitive approaches that create anxiety and disengagement.
The platform leverages artificial intelligence to mimic real-world attacks personalized by role, location, department, and language (30+ languages supported), while instant microtrainings (30-90 seconds) reinforce learning immediately after phishing tests. Hoxhunt's adaptive system adjusts difficulty and frequency based on individual skill levels, claiming up to 40x higher engagement rates than traditional security awareness training, with customers reporting 225% increases in threat reporting and 500% improvements in resilience ratios within 18 months of deployment.
Hoxhunt serves major enterprises including DocuSign, Airbus, and Swisscom across IT, manufacturing, financial services, and consumer sectors, with 214 employees globally and €15.2M in annual revenue as of 2024. The company has raised $43.3M in total funding including a $40M Series B led by Level Equity in May 2022, with investors including Dawn Capital, Icebreaker.vc, and Risto Siilasmaa (Nokia Chairman, F-Secure founder). Hoxhunt was named a 2024 Gartner Peer Insights Customers' Choice vendor (4.8/5 rating, 98% would recommend) and listed in TIME's 2025 World's Top EdTech Companies.
Key Capabilities
Standardized capabilities mapped to this product's security niche
Provides team-level risk dashboards visible to people managers and HR, enabling business-side accountability for security behavior separate from the security team dashboard.
Syncs user rosters, role changes, and offboarding events from HRIS and identity providers, keeping the platform enrollment current without manual administration.
Includes training content mapped to specific compliance control requirements (HIPAA workforce training, GDPR data handling, PCI DSS cardholder data procedures).
Calculates individual security risk scores from observed actions (phishing simulation results, policy violations, risky application usage), rather than training completion status alone.
Sends simulated phishing emails at configurable frequency and difficulty, tracking click, credential submission, and report rates per user and department.
Intercepts risky actions (sending email to an external domain, uploading to an unapproved service), and presents a contextual security prompt before the action completes.
Assigns training modules based on each user's observed risk behaviors, role, and previous training results rather than delivering the same content to all users.
