Getting started with your MA program launch

After you complete the Initial setup of Managed Security Awareness and your Managed Security Awareness® (MA) program is activated on the selected launch date:

  • Users receive the QuickStart session on launch day. This session introduces the user to the MA program, and informs them of what to expect.
    Note: If a new user is added after launch, The QuickStart session is sent instead of the regularly scheduled awareness session or quiz, or on a no-session week based on the session delivery day.
  • When enabled, users receive awareness sessions approximately every two weeks on the configured session delivery day.
  • When enabled, users receive a monthly phishing simulation email.
