KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training

KnowBe4 is a industry leading security awareness training tool, which can be used to send out cyber security training content, phishing campaigns, and other resources depending on the modules you have purchased. The user is the weakest link in the security chain, and so it is important to educate and raise awareness for different threats that users will encounter. Before I purchased KnowBe4 I had to scrape together different products to send out phishing campaigns, and I was creating my own training material. This took time and meant that I wasn't able to do this as often as I would like. However, with KnowBe4 I have access to a large library of email templates, training modules, and customizable features for educating my staff.

We perform monthly phishing expeditions of all employees. We also require monthly Security Awareness training videos be completed by each employee. It is part of their annual performance evaluation. We also take advantage of the KnowBe4 Phish Alert button for Outlook. All employees can report suspected phishing messages to IT this way.

• We've had several reports from employees that claimed that their responses to potential security threats were the direct result of what they had seen on one of the training videos
• It has actually made staff interested in the security topic. We've had requests to "binge watch" our training videos. At least one department has printed a large The Inside Man banner for their break room.

This helps in getting all employees get basic security awareness training and it helped a lot from phishing attacks and many more attacks

• An attack can cost a huge loss , so comparatively investing on employees training and Knowbe4 is completely worth
