our story

All great companies start with a great story

It all started in 2016 when university friends Mika and Pyry dreamt of a world where one puts humans first in cybersecurity. From a cellar in Espoo, Finland, they started the revolution.

On a car ride home, Mika gave Pyry a call and confirmed he was in, and then Hoxhunt was born.

As the journey would be long and full of dangers, they invited Karri and Pasi to join the fellowship and pressed on together!

To top it all, we’ve attracted some real cybersecurity legends on board to advise us.

We decided to create a better cybersecurity training for employees, one that is made with people in mind.

For user-first training, an exceptional user experience is vital. People need to have engaging training so that they want to participate.

Practice is essential for learning so that people can know what they’re supposed to do when they encounter threats.
