BrainStorm launches Threat Defense to help organizations combat phishing with simulated attacks and just-in-time security training.

Salt Lake City, UT – June 17, 2025 — BrainStorm, the leading platform for enterprise software adoption and end-user enablement, today announced the launch of Threat Defense, a powerful new solution designed to help organizations reduce cybersecurity risk through realistic phishing simulations and behavior-based training. 

With cyber threats on the rise—and phishing accounting for over 90% of data breaches—Threat Defense equips organizations with the tools to proactively protect their workforce. This new modality enables IT and security teams to deploy simulated phishing campaigns and instantly deliver targeted micro training when users engage with malicious links, reinforcing better decisions in-context, when it matters most. 

“Security isn’t about checking boxes—it’s about changing behavior. Threat Defense brings training into the real-world decisions users make every day,” said Derek Adams, CTO of BrainStorm. 

Key features of BrainStorm Threat Defense include: 

  • Simulated phishing campaigns 
    Launch customizable, role-based phishing simulations that feel just like real-world attacks. 
  • Just-in-time remediation 
    Automatically trigger brief, relevant training when a user clicks on a phishing email, closing the gap between mistake and learning. 
  • Security readiness reporting 
    Track click rates, training completion, and organizational risk over time to monitor improvement and identify vulnerabilities. 

Unlike standalone phishing platforms, Threat Defense is integrated into the BrainStorm ecosystem, allowing organizations to connect security training to broader adoption and enablement initiatives—all within a single platform. 

Threat Defense is available immediately to new and existing BrainStorm customers and will replace legacy phishing campaign functionality previously offered through QuickHelp. Existing campaigns and workflows are being migrated automatically, ensuring seamless continuity.
