Updated 4 hours ago by Neil Davies

Introduction

This document will introduce the UI and the features available to Users.

Accessing the UI

Navigate to portal.boxphish.com
Login using Single Sign-On via Microsoft or Google, or via Email. If you are logging in by email for the first time please follow the instructions provided under "New to Boxphish" on the login screen.

If you need to reset your password please follow the steps here.

On logging in Users will be presented with a screen similar to the one below, with 'Dashboard' and 'News feed' shown along with any other features granted explicitly.

If working on a small screen, for example on a mobile, the left hand menu will be collapsed by default. To expand or collapse the menu click on the chevrons next to the logo in the top left.

The following functions are available directly on the home screen:

User Details - At the bottom of the left hand menu the currently logged on user is displayed along with their access level.
Logout - At the bottom of the left hand menu is the option to log out. This is will return the user to the login screen.
Dark Mode - In the top right is the option to switch the UI from light to dark mode.

Dashboard

Once logged in all users are presented with the 'Dashboard' page regardless of access level. This will display all outstanding courses in the 'Your Courses' widget and all completed courses the 'Activity Timeline'. The image below shows the page and the information contained within it.

Course retakes is an optional setting applied by an administrator, if this is not enabled the course will move to completed even if the user does not achieve the pass mark.

Taking a Course

On starting a Course it will be launched within the UI and will look similar to the image below.

Each Course will provide the detailed steps on how to complete it within the Course itself. With each being different this is not detailed within this guide. In general, Courses will have a similar look and feel as established during onboarding discussions with the content team.

In some instances courses can be completed directly from an emailed link rather than in the UI. This option is configured during onboarding and can be updated upon request

News feed

By selecting the 'News Feed' option in the left hand menu the user is presented with the latest news and tips from a series of leading sources related to security awareness, such as the NCSC. The menu and some examples of the types of article are shown below. Filtering to specific sources is possible through the dropdown menu.
