Hoxhunt Expands Adaptive Phishing Training Beyond Email With AI Voice, Deepfake and Multichannel Simulations

Continuous phishing training is powered by agentic AI across email, Teams, SMS, callback phishing, vishing and deepfake video

MINNEAPOLIS, Sept. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Hoxhunt, the world's leading human risk management platform, today announced expanded capabilities for its flagship Adaptive Phishing Training. The automated solution now prepares employees for social engineering across the communication channels where modern attacks unfold.

Phishing no longer stops at email. Attackers move across Teams, text, phone calls and deepfakes to build trust and pressure employees into acting. And with AI-enabled spear phishing and deepfakes becoming the new normal, one-size-fits-all phishing tests for compliance cannot keep pace.

Hoxhunt replaces static campaigns with individual learning paths that are built for behavior and engagement. Its Agentic Reasoning Engine uses live threat intelligence and employee context to select the right simulation for the right person at the right time. Difficulty and scenario type change as skills improve, while Hoxhunt automatically runs and measures the program.

How Hoxhunt's Adaptive Phishing Training Works

• Agentic, threat-led personalization:
  • A constantly updated library reflects current attacks
  • The Agentic Reasoning Agent auto-selects simulations based on individuals' backgrounds, skills, needs, and admin priorities
  • The Spear Phishing Agent creates simulations tailored to individual context and optional open-source intelligence
• Real-time microtraining: Employees receive immediate coaching after reporting or interacting with a simulation, reinforcing good decisions and correcting mistakes.
• Multichannel simulations: Training covers email, SMS, Teams, callback phishing, vishing and deepfake video, including executive-impersonation scenarios.
• Interactive voice-phishing training: Employees speak directly with AI voice agents in realistic social-engineering scenarios that teach them to resist pressure, verify requests and say no. Offensive lessons let them experience the attacker's methods by attempting to socially engineer the AI agent.
• Human threat detection: Employees report suspicious messages with the Hoxhunt Reporting Button. Hoxhunt data shows 60% report a real malicious email within 12 months.

"Adaptive Phishing Training is Hoxhunt's crown jewel because it creates measurable culture and behavior change by meeting individuals where they're at," said Mika Aalto, co-founder and CEO of Hoxhunt. "Now that adaptive model follows where attacks are going across Teams, text, voice and deepfake video, giving employees realistic practice before a real social engineer applies pressure."

Five major companies won prestigious CSO50 awards in 2026 for their phishing training and human risk management programs, powered by the latest Hoxhunt capabilities.
