"It is an excellent solution for user security awareness well as a good solution for phishing testing"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

It is a very complete tool, simple, easy and quick to implement. It has great features for integration with AD and Office365, among others. Thus, it also has a wide variety of content for training in different areas, plus the features of phishing test simulations and ransomware tests are an excellent tool for testing security. Another feature that I like is that the training can be fully scheduled so that it automatically starts on the indicated dates and times, as well as segmentation based on groups. These are some of the features that I like about the solution. I recommend it.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

At the moment I don't think it has any features or functions that I don't like about the tool, I could only say that the translation of some content into Spanish would be good and also provide more formats for loading personalized content, but apart from that it is excellent and they always continue to innovate in their functions, features and also in their content.

What problems is KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the main problems that the tool solves is the training and awareness of users on security issues in a faster, more constant way and, above all, the control and consistency of these training as well as the performance of phishing tests, which They were quite tricky to handle. We also solve the logistics problem of having to gather the staff in a physical space to carry out training, as well as managing training times. Also with this, we were able to comply with some regulatory aspects which require constant training in security matters, which the tool also helped us with this.

"Excellent and professional advice on security and protecting our company's sensitive data."

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

The content is very relevant to our company and engaging. We have received great reviews from our staff on the training - especially "The Inside Man" which we feel has been very well done. Also, my support contact, Mark Muncy is fantastic. He is fantastic at helping me sort through the huge library of videos, trainings, etc.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

It's not easy to find a downside to cyber security and KnowBe4. If I had to name one thing it would be just the amount of information that is out there can be a bit overwhelming. Our company is very small and it sometimes feels like we can get a bit lost with the sheer size of the training library. Thankfully, my contact Mark Muncy is very helpful and knowledgeable about what videos and training material is the best fit for our organization.

Recommendations to others considering KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training:

The advice I would give any company is that investing in a company like KnowBe4 is a win/win. There is no greater risk than not understanding the damage that a cyber attack can do on your company. Also, there is no greater risk than not understanding that a company's own employees can create a big problem unless they are educated. I would tell any company to take advantage of the videos and the training that is available.

What problems is KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are addressing the biggest risk which is the user / our employees. With the help of KnowBe4, our employees are becoming quite savvy on cyber threats and I believe this will make a huge impact on future risk. In particular, clicking on emails and links within emails has been our biggest risk in the past. Because of this training, all of us think twice before clicking anything. We think first, and doubt everything. Also, because of this training, we have put into place other protocols with regard to banking procedures. We are excited to continue to learn and protect our company.
