Overall Satisfaction with KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training

It is used to educate users about common social engineering tactics and various forms of cyber attacks. We usually use the PAB button for suspicious emails daily, are tested on identifying fishy emails from unknown and known senders, and get daily updates via a news feed for cyber news in the world. It has taught us to be more vigilant and less forthcoming with information when we get strange phone calls from supposed vendors that ask pointed questions.

Pros

  • Explain cyber attack methods in layman's terms for anyone to understand
  • Gives us many types of examples to become familiar with common attacks
  • Allows users to train on demand and year round

Cons

  • Some of the test emails for phishing training are too easy to identify
  • Create trivia games with Kahoot that users can participate in directly
  • Cannot think of anything else, love the products
  • Helps secure organization via "the human firewall"
  • Less time spent fighting easy to spot threats can be devoted towards development and spotting high impact threats
  • Lack of successful attacks means saving money on cyberinsurance and ransomware payouts

Would you buy KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training again?

Yes

Having the real world scenarios and up-to-date training from KnowBe4 has been a godsend. Some information becomes outdated as soon as it is deployed into the world. Attackers are always looking for new ways to attack someone or something successfully to get a payoff. KnowBe4 always finds ways to stay ahead of them or beside them. Their innovation and ability to foresee possible threats helps organizations to stay as secure as possible.
I believe that the KnowBe4 Security Awareness training is well suited for all organizations that have users online and on desktops all day. Most of the products can educate the users and help them better protect themselves and the organization from bad actors and internal threats. I think it is less suited for organizations with little to no computer contact during the work day.
