Hoxhunt has expanded its Respond platform to automate the investigation and removal of phishing emails, aiming to ease the burden that successful security awareness training places on security operations centers. The company notes that as employees get better at spotting threats, they file more reports—many of them duplicates or benign. Hoxhunt data shows that roughly 80% to 85% of employee-reported emails are not malicious.
Respond addresses this by automatically investigating each report, correlating related messages into one incident, and suppressing safe or duplicate submissions. When a threat is confirmed, the platform finds matching messages across affected inboxes and removes them, including copies employees never reported. Remediation is reversible, and employees receive immediate feedback on their reports.
The platform includes four components: Instant Feedback, Incident Orchestration, Search & Destroy, and Feedback Rules. Hoxhunt says Respond can reduce phishing tickets requiring analyst attention by up to 99% and remediate confirmed campaigns in under one minute. The company also reports saving more than 900 hours of SOC analysis per month at enterprise customers, with models trained on 10 years of employee-reported phishing data and intelligence from over five million human sensors. The platform classifies malicious emails with 96% accuracy and safe emails with more than 99% accuracy.
