Microsoft Teams has become the place where work gets done.
Conversations, approvals, planning, problem-solving… It all lives there now.
What often doesn’t live there is cyber security awareness training.
For many organisations, training still relies on email nudges or reminders that ask users to stop what they’re doing, log into another platform, and come back later. The results are predictable: Missed messages, overdue training, and low engagement.
What’s less well known is that Boxphish integrates directly with Microsoft Teams, delivering cyber security awareness training inside the tools your users already rely on every day.
Training inside Teams, not just reminders
A lot of “Teams integrations” stop at notifications. A message pops up, a reminder is sent, and the user is pushed elsewhere to complete training.
Boxphish takes a different approach.
With the Boxphish Microsoft Teams Integration, users can access and complete their training natively inside Microsoft Teams.
No redirects. No extra portals. No additional logins.
Training becomes part of the Teams experience rather than an interruption from it.
What this means for users:
- Training notifications appear in the Teams activity feed.
- Courses can be opened and completed directly within Teams.
- Visible shortcut on the left taskbar to training courses within the Teams app.
- Progress is clearly visible, including outstanding and completed training.
- Secure authentication happens automatically via Microsoft Teams SSO.
- The experience works on both desktop and mobile.
When training is this easy to access, people are far more likely to finish it.
Why engagement improves when friction disappears
Email fatigue is real. In Teams-first organisations, inboxes are no longer the primary place people pay attention.
By meeting users where they already work, the Teams Integration removes common barriers to completion:
- No need to search for emails.
- No switching between tools, platforms or portals.
- No forgotten passwords or login steps.
The result is higher engagement, better completion rates, and less chasing for admins. Ultimately, that leads to lower human cyber security risks.
Better engagement isn’t a nice-to-have. It’s the difference between training that exists and training that actually works.
Built for modern, mobile workforces
Today’s workforce isn’t tied to desks or laptops.
The Boxphish Teams Integration is designed for modern working patterns, supporting both desktop and mobile Teams apps. This makes it especially effective for:
- Frontline employees.
- Remote and hybrid teams.
- Mobile or shift-based workers.
- Organisations where Teams is the primary digital workspace.
Training fits around how people work, rather than asking them to adapt to the training.
Simple for users, controlled for admins
While the training experience lives inside Teams, admin control stays exactly where it should.
Deployment is quick and handled once by an administrator. Admins can choose whether to deliver training notifications via email, Teams, or both, and all reporting and management remains in the Boxphish portal.
No additional complexity. No loss of visibility.
A small change that drives real engagement
The Microsoft Teams Integration is available as a low-cost add-on for Boxphish Professional and Enterprise customers.
For organisations struggling with engagement or completion rates, it’s a simple upgrade that delivers immediate, measurable benefits.
If your teams live in Teams, your training should too
Cyber security awareness training is most effective when users actually see it and complete it.
Boxphish’s Microsoft Teams Integration doesn’t just remind users that training exists. It puts the training where work already happens, making it easier to engage, easier to complete, and far harder to ignore.
If Microsoft Teams is central to how your organisation works, Boxphish already fits right in.
