MISSION
A smarter approach to security awareness
We believe the future of cybersecurity lies in empowering people. Our mission is to help organizations manage human risk sustainably by building products that drive real behavior change.
Powered by behavioral science
Checking the compliance box isn’t enough. To close the human security gap, we apply proven psychological principles that actually change behavior and reduce risk.
Putting people first
If it’s fun and engaging, it works. That’s why we build security awareness training that employees enjoy using — because that’s what drives lasting impact.
Built for Busy Security Teams
Security professionals are very busy individuals nowadays. We listen to our customers and are constantly developing our platform to deliver the highest impact with the least effort.
Our Roots in Behavioral Science
Pioneers in behavioral science and learning psychology
In our product organization, over 30% of team members come from a background in social science or psychology. This isn't just a random fact, it's a key element of our approach: It helps us infuse each product with insights about human behavior.
Cybercriminals have been adept at exploiting our emotions for their sake, making it crucial for individuals to develop resilience against their tactics. However, the power of human psychology is not solely in the hands of malicious actors. Behavioral science has furnished us with a wealth of proven tools that can empower us to adapt sustainable and secure digital behavior. At SoSafe, we are dedicated to harnessing these insights.
