Cofense provides an additional layer of security by scanning emails again to catch malicious emails that make it through the initial filters. Cons Cofense appears to be experiencing growing pains. We've had several hours of scanner downtime when their servers get overloaded, training emails that fail to send, or alerts / reports that stop working for no apparent reason.

We also test new employees for phishing and the benefit is they learn to be wary of suspecting emails, right before their ignorance about this security topic becomes a threat for the entire company. Pros I like the fact this tool allows you to teach people how to spot a phishing e-mail. It's a very effective tool for training the weakest security link in the organization, the human factor. Cons Whilst being easy to use and very straightforward, you get a sense that it might be overpriced. Unless your organization is mid-to-large in size, small businesses might prioritize other expenses before investing in a license for the PhishMe Simulator.
