Frequently Asked Questions
No. Adaptive Security is a training-only platform. You still need to purchase and manage a separate Secure Email Gateway (SEG) to stop actual attacks. PhishFirewall includes PhishEQ, a next-gen SEG, at no extra cost.
Because PhishFirewall controls both the email security and the training, we can do something unique: when PhishEQ blocks a real attack, it instantly feeds that data to Lora (our AI coach), who creates a personalized simulation for that specific user based on the threat they just faced.
Yes, and it's more effective. While Adaptive focuses on high-production value 'simulations', PhishFirewall uses behavioral science-backed micro-learning designed to actually change habits, not just entertain.
