Expel

October 2019 - February 2024

Expel is a B2B managed security service provider (MSSP). In August 2020, we launched a new service: Expel Managed Phishing. Customer users submit suspicious looking emails to us and our security analysts determine whether or not the email is malicious or benign, whether or not there has been a security breach, and how to remediate the situation.

I was the sole designer for this cross functional feature team since its inception, and designed for both external customer users and internal security analysts, from dashboards to workflows. This service exceeded $1M ARR in less than 8 months.

(Automated) Remediations

If we find a security risk, we create actions for the customer to secure their environment. These are called remediations. I designed how remediations and auto remediations would manifest within the phishing service.

Designing for internal users and external customers
Designing and creating a notification strategy
Maintaining consistency between services (or trying to)

Phishing Service Onboarding

Since Phishing was a new service, onboarding customers was an entirely manual effort from internal Expel users. I designed an onboarding wizard so customers could onboard themselves.
