Barracuda brings PhishLine Levelized Programs
Barracuda Networks has announced Barracuda PhishLine Levelized Programs, an alternative to the problematic, but industry-standard, click rate metric. Levelized Programs provide a new, incentive-focused, way to measure user resistance to phishing attacks.
“As phishing attacks have grown stealthier and more sophisticated, awareness training and simulation have proven invaluable in conditioning employees as a line of defense,” said Hatem Naguib, SVP & GM of Security, Barracuda. “But the effectiveness of these solutions has hit a ceiling, inhibited by ‘click rate fatigue’ –overreliance on a problematic metric. Levelized Programs, the industry’s first click rate alternative, accelerates the learning process by showcasing improvement – focusing on the positive, and not the negative.”
According to the company, Barracuda PhishLine turns employees into a line of defense through continuous training and attack simulation. PhishLine offers data analytics and reporting to allow customers to measure and report on risks at the macro and micro levels across the human and process layers.
PhishLine is recognized as a Visionary within Gartner's Magic Quadrant for Security Awareness Computer-based Training based on its completeness of vision and ability to execute. The PhishLine SaaS platform includes multivariable attack simulations across email, text message, voice, and USB/mobile media; best-in-class data capture, analytics and reporting; and continual, complex analysis of employee performance.
Email threats continue to become more targeted, making a multi-layered approach critical in successfully protecting targeted employees, applications, and data. Barracuda offers a broad solution against email-borne targeted attacks and social engineering.
