The staff really paid attention when they saw a deepfake video using my voice. Adaptive made cybersecurity personal, which is exactly what we needed.

Frequently Asked Questions.
Customers choose Adaptive when their program needs company-specific training and realistic practice responding to AI impersonation. Generate lessons from your policies, use executive personas in simulations, and let employees practice challenging an AI voice caller. With the corresponding products, connect that preparation to email protection and AI governance.
Huntress has a Content Creator for building custom courses. Adaptive's distinction is AI-assisted generation from policies and prompts, followed by editing and delivery within the platform. Compare how each product turns the same company policy into a finished lesson.
Huntress Threat Simulator uses interactive exercises to teach tactics from an attacker's perspective. Adaptive's impersonation scenarios put employees on the receiving end of an attack involving their organization, where they practice verification and refusal. A responsive AI voice conversation adds the pressure of a caller who reacts to their questions.
You can evaluate Adaptive's training and simulations separately from endpoint and identity protection. Define the SAT transition, integrations, and delivery requirements with your team or managed service provider while retaining the other protections your environment requires.
No, Adaptive Email Security analyzes inbound messages and supports automated threat removal. Huntress ITDR monitors identity activity and responds to account abuse. Evaluate them against the specific risks each addresses.
Yes, Adaptive AI Governance inspects prompts and pasted content within supported, monitored environments and can coach or block policy violations. Those events can also inform employee risk and follow-up training.
No, Adaptive combines ready-made training with AI-generated custom content. Once configured, automated delivery, employee syncing, onboarding, dynamic groups, and follow-up help maintain the program. Your team can focus its customization on the procedures and risks that matter most.
Review export, retention, and audit requirements before switching. Adaptive's team will help plan the transition and clarify what can be retained or carried over. If an MSP manages the existing program, involve that partner in the review.
Talk to us about an evaluation ahead of renewal. Bring a company policy and a scenario you want employees to practice so the evaluation can show how Adaptive would support your actual program.
