The NEW Version of KnowBe4’s Email Exposure Check Pro (EEC) identifies the at-risk users in your organization by crawling business social media information and now thousands of breach databases.

Where does Awareness Training fit in?
Information security management includes mitigating all forms of threats whether cyber-security threats, human error or malicious insider threats.
Information Security has several layers:
- Your technical measures, such as firewalls, DMZs, and Access Controls, are your perimeter defence against Cyber-Security threats.
- Your staff, suppliers and vendors represent what KnowBe4 call the Human Firewall. They are your first line of defence in the larger scope of Information Security, whether that information is cyber or physical. Research has shown that human behaviour and third-parties present the greatest risk to information security and protection of personal information. KnowBe4 help you to address that with measurable results.
