SCHEDULE B: SYMBOL SECURITY SERVICE DESCRIPTION
SymbolSecure ("SymbolSecure) is a Software as a Service (SaaS) offering that enables organizations to group and categorize its users, and test those users against a number of different simulated phishing email campaigns with the end goal being improved recognition by the users of suspected phishing emails. Organizations using SymbolSecure to assess various points of data regarding security risks can opt to configure SymbolSecure to help identify areas of weakness in either corporate wide, departmental, or individual employee behavior based on responses to certain phishing email campaigns. SymbolSecure performance may need administrators to adjust settings on their own systems (such as email security systems or email servers/services) so that the SymbolSecure can successfully deliver emails to the users’ email inboxes. Whitelisting instructions are contained at the following address: https://help.symbolsecurity.com/article/whitelist-ip-instructions/. Additionally, administrators can contact support@symbolsecurity.com for other questions related to email performance and any third party settings.
SymbolSecure Billing and Usage
Each SymbolSecure license shall allow for the management and reporting for one (1) instance of use, with monthly charges occurring for the maximum number of Users on any given day of the month (unless a higher number of users had been committed by the contract or addendum). A User is any email address loaded into the ‘Users’ section of the application within the Company’s instance. Users are billed based on presence of their email address on the platform and not based on usage of the SymbolSecure services.
SymbolSecure Features and General Overview:
Dashboard: All Administrators will be granted access within the SymbolSecure platform to a central dashboard that provides summarized information including Total Emails Sent, Phish Data Entered, Risk Score, and time periods like Current Month, Last Month, Last Year, etc.
Risk Score: Symbol Security uses proprietary data to assign a potential Cyber Risk Score based on a company’s current performance against the phishing simulation testing and other factors. This Cyber Risk Score is presented in the main administrative dashboard. The Cyber Risk Score presented is not a guarantee of accuracy of actual cyber risk and should be used as an internal measurement tool to quantify effectiveness of continued phishing simulation testing thru reduction of risk.
Phishing Campaigns: All Administrators will be granted access to a Phishing Campaign Engine within the Symbol portal that enables Administrators to select Phishing email templates from both public and private libraries and select employees to test against these email templates for campaign periods that are customized by the Administrator. At any point during an active campaign, an Administrator can choose to end a campaign. All campaigns, both Active and Finished, will be available for Administrators to review.
Email Templates: All Administrators will be granted access to a library of Phishing Email Templates. These templates can be selected for individual Phishing Campaigns. The Email Templates are available either as ‘public’, meaning they are a part of the SymbolSecure library available to all Subscribers for use, or they are ‘private’, meaning they are only available to the Subscriber and its Administrators.
Email Template Creation: If Administrators wish to create a customized Email Template, not currently in the SymbolSecure library, they can request a custom template to be created. If the request if for a Public Template (meaning the template would be available to all customers and partners), Symbol will complete on a best effort basis. Please note, if a Private Template is requested, it is likely that the request completion may require a professional services engagement at which point a separate Statement of Work will be provided and will need to be agreed to by both parties.
Employees and Users: It is the Administrators responsibility to upload or enter all employee information for use by the SymbolSecure tools. Administrators will be able to manually enter employees, or they can choose a .csv upload feature is enabled to provide for an easier means of transferring employee information (such as name, title, email address and department). SymbolSecure also provides an integration tool to enable Entra ID/Azure Active Directory access via O365 Integration. Subscriber Administrators can categorize Employees by their current titles or put into Employees into custom groups that the Administrator creates.
Administrator Settings: Within the company profile settings, an Administrator can select or add other Administrators. Administrator categories and other specifics can be found here at https://knowledge.symbolsecurity.com/manage-admins-permissions.
Phish Alert Button: Within the SymbolSecure Services is a feature known as the Report a Phish (RaP) Button. The RaP Button allows Customers to enable Users to have a Button installed in their email application (support is dependent upon the email application version). When this button is enabled, it allows the User to notify the denoted security team of any potentially suspicious email. If that email is a phishing simulation training email from Symbol, the User will immediately receive a note indicating such and the event will be recorded in the Dashboard. If that email is NOT a phishing simulation training email from Symbol, the email will be routed to the designated security team for review. Instructions on how to download and install the RaP can be found in the Documentation section of www.symbolsecurity.com or directly in the Symbol application
Custom Phish Emails: Customers may wish to create simulating phishing templates that are not currently available in the SymbolSecure library. To initiate a request for a Custom Phish Email, Customer can contact support@symbolsecurity.com. Charges may apply for these requests and corresponding statement of works to define any deliverables associated with a chargeable engagement will be required.
SymbolSecure: In addition to Phishing Simulation and Phish Alert services provided under the SymbolSecure offering, Symbol also provides video-based security awareness training services delivered through the SymbolSecure offering. SymbolSecure has two versions: SymbolSecure CORE which consists of Symbols owned asset library, and SymbolSecure PRO which consists of CORE assets plus additional assets available from our partners. SymbolSecure allows Administrators to assign training courses to its Users (via Users, Groups, and Categories much like assigning a phishing campaign). When Users are assigned to a training course, they will be emailed and prompted for a login. Each interaction with the training course will provide events that are also represented in the administrator dashboard.
Symbol Managed Program: In addition to SymbolSecure platform offerings, Symbol, for an additional monthly management fee, can provide a suite of Managed Services designed to remove much of the administration of security awareness training from the customer and employ Symbol Security staff to execute those administrative tasks. Examples of these tasks include but are not limited to:
Design of:
- Training launch plan
- Training communications
- Training schedule
Execution of:
- Phishing Simulations
- Training Communications
- Training and Video Assignments
- Completion Tracking and Reporting
Symbol Domain and Email Threat Alerting Service :
Symbol Security monitors thousands of dark web, deep web and publicly available sources to provide notifications regarding the activity of corporate email addresses, and corporate domain names that may be of helpful in reducing the risks of phishing attacks, credential theft resulting in ransomware, spoofed landing pages and many other acts of cyber-crime. Activity may include things like a provided email address being found on a known breached website, or a database of sold email and password data, or simply a domain name that exists, that looks like a spoofed version of the Customer’s domain name.
Symbol Security Email Threat Alerts:
- In providing email domains for monitoring, Reseller validates that in each case their customer is the owner of the subject email domain(s)
- Service provides historical breach information for all email users for subject domain, in some cases up to 7 years of prior results
- Proactively reports any breached information found to Reseller Administrators either via emailed report, or through Symbol application
- End Users are also alerted if their email is found in a data breach
- Monthly reports aggregate the Email Breach Notifications of all email users for subject domain for that month
- Users are provided a workflow from the notification they receive that enables them to indicate whether they have changed username/password combinations.
- Administrators are able to view and modify these username/password change acknowledgements on their administrator dashboard
Symbol Security Domain Threat Alerts:
- In providing email domains for monitoring, Reseller shall validate that in each case they are the owner of the subject web domain(s).
- Provides awareness of a number of different activities and scenarios related to subject domain name, including:

- Newly registered domains that meet certain rogue variant criteria such as:
- Transposition of letters/characters compared with original domain name
- Addition of letters/characters compared with original domain name
- Insertion of letters/characters compared with original domain name
- Omission of letter(s) compared with original domain name
- Bitsquatting or use of Unicode characters replacing other characters from original domain name
- Upon any discovery of the above events, Reseller administrator will be notified, and activity will be captured in monthly reporting provided by Symbol, or included in Symbol application.
Cyber Threat Surveillance:
- Cyber Threat Surveillance allows MSPs and Customers to search the surface web, deep web and dark web. These searches will be conducted and presented on a daily frequency unless otherwise stipulated in the Agreement. The content of these searches of the surface web, deep web, and dark web shall be referred to as the “Result Content”.
- Result Content may include secret, non-public or otherwise sensitive information that is not intended to be published or accessible by Customer, MSP or other third parties, and may be illegal for Customer, MSP or other third parties to access or possess.
- Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, all Result Content is provided without warranty of any kind, express or implied, and Symbol Security is not responsible for any Result Content or liability resulting from Customer’s access or possession thereof.
- The Result Content will be presented in the portal for view of Administrators only. Any action taken as a result of Cyber Threat Surveillance is solely the responsibility of the MSP and/or MSP’s Customer. Symbol is not responsible, and not liable for any action taken as a result of any data found in Symbol’s Cyber Threat Surveillance service.
- For each report, Cyber Threat Surveillance will return findings from the surface web, deep web, and dark web. The findings will alert administrators of new material to review.
- These findings will come with associated ‘Negativity’ Ratings for use in prioritization.
- Additionally, administrators may categorize findings to remove them, or give them a proper status to help organize each finding.
- At any time, findings can be permanently deleted. If no action is taken, findings will be removed in 30 days.
