An employee security system from Riot has four major components. The second tool enables businesses to simulate phishing emails sent to employees to fill in security gaps. More than 400 phishing email templates are included in the list, along with flagged regions, or domains that closely resemble the websites of reputable businesses.

How many people open the simulated phishing emails, how many of them reveal their login details, and how long it takes them to complete it are displayed on an analytics platform. For added measure, Riot explores the submitted registration credentials to find poor usernames. Companies can use the information the system has to learn how to enhance their security practices.

Employees are taught about the dangers of phishing in a three-minute training program provided by Riot. Employees also have access to a robot called Albert, the next major part of Riot’s platform. Albert provides security explanations and recommends setting changes for people to make their accounts less vulnerable to hacking. &nbsp,

Two additional tools are also included with the software. The second tool enables employees to report malicious emails to the information technology group, while the second tool identifies when staff information leakage online as a result of cyberattacks. Administrators can examine those emails in a centralized interface and stop the harmful websites that were sent them.

Co-founder and CEO Benjamin Netter stated that “hacks are utilizing the most recent innovations in artificial cleverness to produce extremely precise and powerful attacks worthy of deceiving the most vigilant employees.” By 2027, Riot’s goal is to protect more than 10 million workers.

According to Riot, its app already safeguards about 1 million workers at more than 1,500 businesses. Those businesses include Mistral AI and Y Combinator, one of the participants in the software maker’s latest$ 30 million cash round.
