KnowBe4, a security awareness training and simulated phishing platform, has launched a security awareness video series for its diamond-level customers called “The Inside Man.” The company describes its videos as immersive, combining how users want to consume information with training.
The Inside Man is a 12-episode video series created by Twist & Shout. The series is about an IT security analyst starting a new job where no one suspects he’s already inside their most secure systems or that sinister forces are pulling his strings. The series delivers a movie-like experience with a story to engage users the firm says. From social engineering to passwords, to social media and travel, The Inside Man reveals how an outsider can penetrate an organisation’s security controls and network. It wrestles with the human cost of cybercrime. This new content is available to all diamond-level KnowBe4 subscribers. Watch The Inside Man series trailer at the company website.
Stu Sjouwerman, CEO, KnowBe4 said: “I’m very excited to bring this unique video series exclusively to our customers. The Inside Man will help level-up customers’ security awareness training programs. The series offers a compelling story, an incredible cast and very high production values; all to create the coolest series ever streamed. We’ll continue bringing our customers always fresh content to help create their optimum security culture.”
And Perry Carpenter, chief evangelist and strategy officer, KnowBe4 said: “This entertaining new series is the first of its kind to be introduced by a security awareness training organisation. The Inside Man sets a new standard for production quality, storytelling, emotional range, and embedded learning. Recognising and stopping malicious behaviour by a trusted party can be difficult, and the human cost is high. That’s what makes this series so intriguing. This type of threat – the insider threat – can often be overlooked, so it’s important to highlight this issue to help benefit the security posture of our customers’ organisations.”
