Platform

Improvements

  • Modified the logic of importing users through CSV files. Now, when importing users via CSV, the system will follow the logic of searching by email and then by username.
  • Improved the performance of loading indicators on the Dashboard.
  • Improved the performance of updating the status (active/inactive) of multiple users from the Users table.
  • Improved the performance in loading the Campaign List.

Corrections

  • An issue that arose when accessing the campaign details of some deleted campaigns has been fixed.
  • An issue in the monthly ranking displayed on the End User Dashboard, where scores were not showing correctly in specific cases, has been corrected.
  • A correction was made to the start and expiration dates of campaigns listed in the Campaign List. From now on, these dates will be displayed in the time zone of the administrative user viewing the list.
  • An issue that arose when deleting a parameter in the campaign creation URL from the campaign list has been fixed.
  • A correction was made to the title of the Risk Scoring card for groups. Previously, the word “group” always appeared in English, regardless of the user’s language.  
  • An issue in Audit > Campaign Detail for the User, where user interactions in the campaign were not displaying correctly, has been fixed.
  • A modification was made to the data export file of the Past Campaigns table. The topic column in the exported file showed extra information that did not apply. 
  • A correction was made in the translation of notifications sent via Slack.
  • An issue in the End User Dashboard that caused repeated content to be displayed in the available content section in some cases has been fixed.
  • A correction was made in the “Match Pairs” activity of the Interactive Modules component. The issue occurred when incorrectly displaying the highlighting color when matching the correct pairs. This happened only when there were two activities of this type in consecutive slides. 
  • An issue identified when viewing users belonging to Levels of Hierarchy and Functional Areas has been fixed. It turned out that users who were not actually in these groups were being displayed. This issue did not affect campaign sending. 
  • An issue that arose when trying to create template content using inactive content has been fixed.

Improvements

  • Improved the performance in loading the Reports > Campaigns section.
  • Improved the maintenance message displayed in the user’s browser language when the platform is under maintenance.
  • Modified the way user language import is managed. The user language will not be changed by any import process if the end user has selected a specific language in their profile or if an administrative user has assigned a specific language from the Users and Groups > Users section.
  • Standardized the character limit for the username field in various user import methods.
  • Added two new columns to the user table located in Users and Groups > Users. The columns are:
    • Creation Date: Displays the date and time of each user’s creation.
    • Edition Date: Displays the date and time of the last edit for each user.
    Additionally, two new options for exporting all data from the user table have been added:
    • CSV with complete information of this table (not suitable for import).
    • Excel with complete information of this table (not suitable for import).
    These files are unsuitable for import because they have a different structure containing more information than what is required in the user import section using CSV.
  • Added the ability to use the Hanken Grotesk and Montecatini Pro fonts in the platform’s HTML editor.
  • Improved sending speed for simulation emails through Direct Message Injection, both for Microsoft and Google.
    Error handling for incorrect configurations has also been improved.

Corrections

  • An issue that occurred when reassigning users in a campaign with auto-enrollment has been fixed. In some cases, the reassignment email was not being sent correctly.
  • Translation issues in the texts of certain administrative sections of the platform have been fixed. This issue caused some text fragments to be displayed in Spanish even when the administrative user had a different language configuration.
  • An issue related to case sensitivity when importing users from Microsoft Azure Active Directory and Google has been corrected.
  • An issue that arose when accessing the details of an empty campaign group has been fixed.
  • An issue related to the language filter in the content gallery has been fixed. This issue caused results that did not meet the filter criteria to be displayed.
  • A correction in the logic of the Autoenrollment process in derived campaigns has been made. The automatic assignment was not working correctly for exams.
  • An issue in the Groups, Functional Areas, Levels of Hierarchy, and Smart Groups sections where table content was not being displayed has been fixed.
  • An issue that occurred when consulting available content from the end user dashboard has been fixed. This issue sometimes caused the loading of available content to fail, requiring the user to press the “Load More Content” button again.
  • An issue that occurred when accessing a test campaign of Interactive Modules integrated with LMS has been fixed. The issue redirected users to the SMARTFENSE login screen upon entering the module.
  • An issue that occurred when accessing a user’s audit section from the Audit > Assigned Actions > Users > General View section has been fixed.
  • Missing headers in Phishing and Ransomware simulations sent via DMI with Microsoft have been added.
  • The user import process from Microsoft Azure Active Directory has been corrected. The issue occurred when configuring the import of Functional Areas or Hierarchical Levels, and a user did not have information in the selected fields to obtain the data.
  • An issue that affected the search for campaigns in the Campaigns > Campaign List section when the instance name began with numbers has been fixed.

New features

Smishing Simulation Campaigns

Smishing simulation campaigns allow you to test users’ behavior when they receive an SMS with socially engineered content.

From the SMS delivered in each campaign, it is possible to measure the opening of links and the input of data on simulated phishing websites.

The contents of smishing traps are 100% customizable, and it is possible to create new ones from scratch.

This component integrates with all platform audit reports and logs, the administrative dashboard, and user, group, and organization risk scoring.

Improvements

  • Added the ability to configure the second factor of authentication for end users in instances configured with SMARTFENSE credentials authentication.
  • Improved the user import process with all methods for groupings to support the “&” character in the name field.
  • Modified the message displayed when requesting password recovery from the login screen.
  • Enhanced performance in loading the table in the Administrative Audit section.
  • Modified the sidebar in the Calendar section. This section is now named “Campaigns” and includes two subsections, Calendar and Campaign List. The latter is a new section that displays past and future campaigns in the instance in a table with various filtering options.
  • Added new available languages to the predefined USB Drop files.
  • Improved the Drag and Drop activity in Interactive Modules to work correctly when the browser has translation extensions like Google Translator.

Corrections

  • An issue was fixed where the QR code was not being received correctly when sending a Phishing or Ransomware simulation with a QR code via DMI through Microsoft.
  • A correction was made in the Smart Groups editing screen as the last update date of the group did not update correctly.
  • An issue that arose during user imports from Microsoft Azure Active Directory with certain specific configurations has been fixed.
  • A correction was made in the campaign details of Interactive Modules with Derived Exams. Interactions from each user’s Exam were not being generated correctly in the CSV or Excel resulting from the export.
  • An issue in the campaign detail table where it was not possible to click the buttons in the cell when there was only one user was fixed.
  • An issue in the administrative audit log related to user imports from Microsoft Azure Active Directory was fixed.

New features

BeyGoo Integration

The integration between SMARTFENSE and BeyGoo allows the detection of users’ compromised credentials on both the surface network and the Deep & Dark Web. This information is included in the risk-scoring reports of SMARTFENSE.

Autoenrollment

In campaigns with the “Recurring assignment and relative duration” mode, a new functionality has been added that allows for the automatic reassignment of users who have not completed the campaign within the specified time.

This automatic reassignment is known as Autoenrollment and can be performed a finite number of times or continuously until the user completes the campaign in question.

Improvements

  • The loading speed of the calendar was optimized. Additionally, the popover that appeared when hovering over each campaign was replaced by a modal that can be viewed by clicking the “View more information” button present in each of them.
  • The download speed of the grouping campaign details was optimized.
  • Performance improvements were made in SMARTFENSE’s APIs.
  • The “phishalertbutton.com” domain was added to the Whitelist section.
  • An interface correction was implemented in the content gallery. Previously, when selecting an item with text longer than the width of the filter, the display was not optimal.
  • A time improvement was made in the user import process through Microsoft Azure.
  • Improvements were made to the “Create Group” and “Create Reverse Group” buttons in the campaign detail view. Previously, when the percentage was 0%, the buttons did not appear. Now, validation is based on the number of interactions rather than the percentage.
  • Performance improvement was carried out in the Content Gallery.

Corrections

  • A correction was made in the end user’s Dashboard. The issue was that in some cases, the available attempts count for exam campaigns was displayed incorrectly.
  • A modification was made in the Campaign Audit section to display zero instead of “None” when the USB Drop content has no past, future, or deleted events.
  • A correction was applied to USB Drop campaigns. The file name was not being displayed correctly in the campaign detail.
  • An issue that arose when performing a search in the Audit – User History section in campaigns was fixed.
  • An issue that occurred when sending the report for finished campaigns was fixed.
  • A correction was made in the campaign editing process. Previously, when creating a campaign and then editing it, the previously chosen topic was not loaded correctly.
  • An issue when attempting to stop a campaign was fixed.
  • A correction was made to an issue that arose when viewing the User Ranking on the End User Dashboard in instances with fewer than six users.
  • A correction was made in the user import process from Microsoft Azure. Users with a null “last name” field were not being imported.
  • An issue that arose when trying to edit an Interactive Module campaign with derived exams was fixed.
  • Content navigation issues that arose when configuring authentication without credentials on the platform were fixed.
  • An issue in the end user’s Dashboard was fixed. When completing a Newsletter campaign without a validation question, the content was not moved to the Completed Content section but remained in the Assigned Content section.
