Pistachio is a cybersecurity training program that is dedicated to empowering individuals and organizations to stay safe in the digital world. Our tailored training program is designed to meet the unique needs and behaviors of each employee, ensuring they receive the knowledge and skills they need to stay protected from cyber threats.

For IT admins, Pistachio is fully automated and fully personalized. All you have to do is turn the product on, and your employees will start receiving our training content automatically, which includes tailored simulations and relatable scenarios. You don’t have to pick out which training to send, you don’t have to group your users, you don’t have to remember to follow up on people. Pistachio handles everything for you.

For end users, Pistachio respects your time. We know you have a job to do, and that is why we send everything directly to your inbox. Just read the scenario-based questions, click one of the answers and find out if you were right. It’s that easy! And when it comes to our simulations, don’t worry if you fall for one. We want you to! Falling for a simulation is a great way to learn. We will show you what clues you missed, and that’s it.

Pistachio Disguisey is the protagonist in the movie The Master of Disguise. Given that Pistachio, the cybersecurity product, is sending “disguised” attacks to people, we thought the name was fitting.

Pistachio is a cybersecurity startup based in Oslo, Norway. We have a total of 31 employees representing 14 different nationalities. You can read more about our team on our blog. We are also growing! If you are looking for a job, please contact us at contact@pistachioapp.com.

Yes! In fact, the only way to log in to Pistachio is via Microsoft SSO.

Unfortunately, today Pistachio only works with Microsoft Entra ID. We plan on adding support for Google in the future.

Create a security group in Microsoft Entra ID that contains “pistachio-standard” in the name (not case sensitive). Every user that is a part of that group will be given a Pistachio license. If Pistachio is turned on, that means the user will automatically start receiving training content.

Pistachio charges a fixed price per user. If you sign up online, you will be charged monthly for the number of users you have synced in the platform. There are options for setting a maximum number of licenses allowed, so you can protect against accidentally adding more users than you intended to.

If you’re interested in a one-year contract, we can offer tailored pricing that suits organizations of all sizes. Get an custom estimate by sending us a message.

The free trial lasts for 14 days after first connecting your Microsoft Entra ID to Pistachio. You can add as many or as few users as you like, and the product is the exact same as the product that you would pay for once the free trial has ended.

Ready to get started? Just follow the steps that match your situation:

If you already have a contract with Pistachio and received an access code from our sales reps, simply log into the platform, go to the settings page and enter the code to activate your licenses.

If you are new to Pistachio, you'll need to visit our website and log into your account using Microsoft SSO. Go to the settings page and enter your payment details to initiate the subscription. Once payment is confirmed, you’ll see your subscription as “activated”, and you can start enjoying all the benefits of Pistachio.

If you encounter any issues during the activation process, please reach out to our customer support team for assistance: contact@pistachioapp.com.

All global administrators in your Microsoft Entra ID tenant will have admin permissions in Pistachio. In addition, any user added to a group in Entra ID that contains “pistachio-admin” in the name (not case sensitive) will also have admin permissions.

You can read more in detail about these permissions here.

Pistachio is a product that “just works”. We need permission to read data from your Entra ID in order to automatically onboard new employees, remove old employees, etc. We also need certain permissions to ensure we have relevant data that we can use to tailor our simulations. In addition, some of the permissions are needed in order to allow us to deliver the training content to your employees.

After the trial ends, if you would like us to delete the data about your organization, feel free to contact us at privacy@pistachioapp.com and we will comply with your request.
