HumanFirewall ® on the other hand, attacks the disease, being fully designed to remediate real cyber-attacks alongside driving measurable uplifts in awareness and preparedness across the enterprise. • Gamified Learning Approach : Our researchers and previous reports state that the user engagement on security awareness training was very low. Hence we’ve transformed our training content into videos (multi-lingual), quizzes and easy SCORM compliant material that focuses on user-friendliness and interest. • Remediation of Real Attacks : Our dashboard empowers employees to report suspicious activity and enable the administrator to take action by going through threat intel automatically provided by the dashboard and save the entire organisation in seconds. Automation by setting certain rules on the dashboard can also be done. • HumanSOAR : A 360-degree protection can be achieved as HumanFirewall broadcasts the threat intel to all other cybersecurity investments done by the organisation like Network Firewalls, Anti Virus, SIEM, Email Security Gateways and ensures that malicious entity is not trying to attack from any other channel. • Federation in the CyberSecurity Community : As soon as the dashboard picks up threat intel, it is federated amongst all our customers and cybersecurity communities as a blacklisted source to safeguard them through precautionary measures beforehand.
