Public sector data and sensitive information are a prime target for cyberattacks. There are numerous popular security tools used across the globe to achieve automated network protection. This study reviews the following tools within the current study: KnowBe4, PhishingBox, PhishInsight, PhishThreat, PhishMe, and Gophish. The rationale behind the detailed review is comparing and contrasting various cybersecurity awareness training tools used to address phishing attacks at the workplace. The selected tools can be used as assessment or enhancement awareness tools; this depends on each tool's settings and system due to its integrated models and flexibility. Furthermore, social engineering attacks are recurrently evolving, so different security tools' strengths and weaknesses could help pick the right instrument for spotting and responding to digital attacks. As a result, this study discusses the drawbacks of the selected tools that can guide developers and services providers in improving the existing phishing awareness tools.
