Overall Satisfaction with KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training

The training is made manadatory to all staff members in our offices - some 400 of them.
Soon we will try to expand to our school leaders. The feedback from our staff is very good.

This training is to reduce risk of staff falling prey to phishing, scamming and other cyber security threats.
  • phishing videos
  • identity theft
  • email security
  • behavioral changes needed
  • detection and protection
  • showing the landscape of cyber security
  • numbering the training sessions
  • showing where they are at some milestone level
  • more awareness
  • improvement in cyber behaviours to reduce risk
  • confidence in what they are doing
  • ability to discern threats and lures in the big, bad cyber underworld
Inititally our cyber security coordinator sought lot of assistance for integrating with our identity management system, groups etc. Later, we needed advice on what bundles of software are useful for various roles. We rolled out the training after due testing and feedback. The KnowBe4 team was very helpful and responsive to our needs.

Would you buy KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training again?

Yes

Clear navigational clues, good dialogue in videos, great scripting of scenarios, plenty of humor, real life actors, good animations, great quiz questions, ability to replay training matters again and again as refreshers, useful dashboards for both users and administrators, ability to send reminders by email, some game based learning, sheer range of learning methods and tools etc...plenty to admire about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training.
Reasonable per head pricing, although on the higher side when we go to scale. We have over 5000 employees including casual teachers used in schools. Would like the opportunity to negotiate better enterprise terms for our system. Overall, the impact of training justifies our move to KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training as our preferred cyber training provider.
The real life scenarios, different characters, video based interactions, good icons, humor, and reinforcing the key points are my picks.
Entry level workers who are not in IT are the best users of this training as it removes the jargon and focuses on behavioral matters with clues on how to avoid falling to the threats.
