Overall Satisfaction with KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training

KnowBe4 Security Awareness is implemented across the business as a Cyber Security training tool. It empowers users with knowledge & learning on how to stay alert to digital threats. It helps educate users to ensure that any attempted attacks on the business are unsuccessful. Phishing simulation emails are particularly successful learning.

Pros

  • Simulated Phishing Emails.
  • Education Videos.
  • User Testing Process.

Cons

  • Shorter more concise educational videos.
  • More simulated attack testing.
  • Better platform UX.
  • Increased Vigilance to Online Threats.
  • Reduction in user vulnerability scores.
  • Empowered and Educated team in Cyber Security.
It keeps our awareness consistent. Threats are ever-changing, and new content allows employees to keep up their vigilance levels. There could be better training content available. Many of the training materials available each month feel very samey and could be varied to keep things from getting stale with staff and their education in this topic.
Unsure. I think it's linked to 365 accounts.
User vulnerability scores and simulation attack success rates allow us to focus on specific users' vulnerabilities and target their training.
Easy to use.
N/A not used any others.

Would you buy KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training again?

Yes

Some of the compulsory videos are skippable, which can prevent learning. This is probably one of the very few issues with the platform. It's very good for keeping vigilance high through its simulated phishing emails. By sending out simulations, everyone is vigilant for emails that they are not expecting. You do not know if the email you have received is a simulation or genuine, so everyone treats it as real.
