Meta1st has launched a new platform dedicated to fortifying the human layer of cybersecurity through the power of Artificial Intelligence (AI). The company said its AI tools offer an innovative and timely solution to address a critical gap: the need to outpace the threat actors using AI technologies to exploit human vulnerabilities.
The enterprise SaaS platform harnesses AI to address the Human Layer, often touted as one of the most critical vulnerabilities in the world of cybersecurity. The Meta1st product suite includes:
- Phish 1st. Recognising that phishing is one of the most common gateways for cyber breaches, Phish 1st is designed not only to test but educate employees on identifying and responding to cyber threats effectively.
- Learn 1st delivers easy to access, cutting-edge, real-world cyber risk education. The Learn 1st platform offers interactive learning modules and customisable quizzes, ensuring that and organisation’s workforce is updated and always vigilant against the latest threats.
- Analyse 1st is an AI-driven reporting button that enhances email security by empowering employees to identify and report malicious emails. Analyse 1st uses advanced algorithms to detect cyber threats and alert users, fostering a secure, aware workplace that feels empowered.
Meta1st’s innovative approach focuses on reducing organisational risk by mimicking real-world attacks and educating end users through AI-driven simulations. Unlike traditional security solutions, which often fall behind the rapidly evolving tactics of cybercriminals, Meta1st’s suite of AI driven tools continuously adapt and evolve to provide organisations with up-to-date, realistic training that will strengthen their human risk management capabilities.
“The threat landscape has shifted dramatically,” explains Qasim Bhatti, CEO of Meta1st. “Cybercriminals are now leveraging AI to outsmart outdated security measures. We counter this by empowering organisations with the tools to educate their workforce, the most vulnerable part of their security infrastructure, in real-time.
“Our journey began with a simple yet profound realisation – while machines and systems constantly evolve, human beings remain susceptible to risks. And often, it’s the people, not the machines, that become the weakest link in the cyber defence chain. With this perspective, we embarked on our mission to fortify this human layer against a spectrum of cyber risks, and are delighted to be in a position to launch our new platform as a weapon in this ever-evolving battle.”
Meta1st enhances an organisation’s resilience by transforming how employees respond to phishing, social engineering, and other forms of cyberattacks. By simulating these threats in a safe, controlled environment, Meta1st prepares users to detect, react to, and mitigate potential breaches — ultimately reducing the risk of human error in cybersecurity by up to 90%, the company has claimed.
