About

Hoxhunt is a Helsinki-founded cybersecurity company, established in 2016, that operates a SaaS platform designed to reduce human risk in organisations. Its core proposition is turning employees into active participants in cyber defence rather than treating them as liabilities to be managed. The platform combines AI-driven personalisation, behavioural science, and gamification to deliver security training that adapts to each user - rewarding progress rather than penalising mistakes.

Beyond simulation, Hoxhunt also offers real threat detection and prevention tools, positioning the product as operational security infrastructure as much as a training environment. The platform sits within the enterprise security training market, targeting organisations seeking to build measurable security culture at scale.

The company has grown at over 50% year-on-year and now employs more than 230 people across offices in Finland, the United States, and the United Kingdom. It describes itself as one of Europe's fastest-growing SaaS scale-ups.

Internally, Hoxhunt emphasises outcome-focused work, direct communication, and employee ownership. Teams are expected to take initiative and operate with a degree of autonomy, with performance measured by results rather than time invested.
