SoSafe

Security awareness and human risk management that makes cybersecurity instinctive and measurable

By SoSafe SE · HQ Cologne, Germany · 4.5/5 Value-Position score (estimate)

Positioning guardrails

Best for

  • Mid-market and enterprise security teams that must prove measurable behaviour change, not just training completion rates.
  • European organisations that need to evidence NIS2, DORA or ISO 27001 human-risk controls for auditors, boards and works councils.
  • Multinational workforces requiring training and simulations localised across 30+ languages and role-specific learning paths.
  • Security teams with heavy manual programme overhead; SoSafe targets roughly 10–15 minutes of weekly admin.

Ideal size: 250–10,000 employees people · Scale-up or enterprise with a named security awareness owner

Not for

  • Teams wanting a free or fully self-serve tool: every plan is quoted, per-user, from around €625 per month.
  • Organisations seeking only a standalone phishing simulator without training, culture measurement or service wrap.
  • Buyers with US-only data-residency or FedRAMP-style federal requirements, which SoSafe does not evidence.

Frequently asked questions

How is SoSafe priced?

SoSafe does not publish list prices. Plans start from €625 per month billed annually and include 50 seats, onboarding, ready-to-use phishing simulations, training and compliance-ready reporting. Pricing uses a degressive per-user model, so the per-user price falls as you add users without threshold cliffs. Existing contracts can add users mid-term, billed for the remaining contract period. Sofie, the AI copilot, is an add-on quoted separately, and enterprise support, compliance content bundles and friends-and-family training are also add-ons.

How long does implementation take and is there a mandatory implementation fee?

There is no mandatory implementation fee. Basic implementation is included in the price of every plan and provides a best-practice onboarding experience. A full-service Enterprise Implementation is available as a paid add-on with a guided selection of customisable templates and custom phishing scheduling. SoSafe states that fully automated campaigns plus expert consulting reduce ongoing admin to roughly 10–15 minutes per week.

Which systems does SoSafe integrate with?

Native integrations include Microsoft 365 (Outlook phishing report add-in), Google Workspace (Gmail reporting), Microsoft Teams and Slack (Sofie copilot), Jira and ServiceNow for security tickets, Microsoft Defender and CrowdStrike for risk signals, and Entra ID/Okta for SSO with automated provisioning from HRIS systems such as Workday, Personio and BambooHR. Content exports as SCORM 1.2 into LMS platforms including SAP SuccessFactors and Moodle, and an open REST API supports BI, EDR and SOAR workflows.

Does SoSafe use customer data to train AI models?

SoSafe's privacy notice states that AI service providers process transmitted data exclusively on SoSafe's behalf under a data processing agreement, and that the data is not used to train the provider's AI models. Transfers outside the EEA rely on Standard Contractual Clauses or EU-U.S. Data Privacy Framework certification, and the notice says no decisions are made solely by automated means under Article 22 GDPR. The Zendesk AI chatbot used for support is also described as not training models on your data.

Which compliance frameworks does SoSafe support?

SoSafe positions reporting around NIS2, DORA and ISO 27001, with ISO-compliant reporting included from the Professional plan and one-click behavioural audit exports in the Ultimate tier. Content bundles cover EU/UK data protection, occupational safety and anti-money-laundering topics. The vendor also states that the platform is GDPR compliant, German engineered and EU hosted.

What support is included?

Every plan includes basic access to the Customer Success Helpdesk via email, plus self-service resources such as the knowledge base and webinars, alongside a best-practice onboarding service. Enterprise support is a paid add-on offering higher-priority handling, faster response times and dedicated customer success managers for adoption and best practice.
