KnowBe4 Cybersecurity Training: Taking cybersecurity awareness training to the next level

Digitalization is putting most daily business activities online. This dependency on the internet gives cybercriminals more opportunities to exploit organization’s system vulnerabilities. Within a few hours, these criminals can hack into a business and bring it crashing down. Recovering from these attacks can take years.

You may be saying to yourself, “My organization has a firewall. We’re safe.” Sadly, the days of relying on firewalls and email filters are long gone. These days a business’ best cybersecurity defense is its workers, which means cybersecurity awareness is a key defense tactic.

Accenture’s Ninth Annual Cost of Cybercrime Study shows that the average cost of cyber-attacks was $11.7 million in 2017. This number jumped to $13 million by the end of 2018. A sharp rise of 12% in the damage cost and cybercrime increment of 72% in the last five years further emphasizes the need for cybersecurity awareness.

As a decision-maker, it’s imperative to know not all cybersecurity awareness trainings are created equal. Many rely on on-demand videos, not real-life, everyday experiences and tracking. KnowBe4 security awareness training brings cybersecurity awareness training into today’s landscape. Its revolutionary approach builds the skills your workforce needs to safeguard your organization.
