Announcement posted by Bench PR 19 Feb 2020
Melbourne – 19 February, 2020 – KnowBe4, the provider of the world’s largest security awareness training and simulated phishing platform, today announced it has launched season two of “The Inside Man”, an award-winning, network-quality security awareness training series to KnowBe4 customers.
Season two of “The Inside Man” is a 12-episode continuation of KnowBe4’s “The Inside Man” series of security awareness training videos delivered in a movie-like experience with a compelling story to engage users and create fans. The series covers topics ranging from social engineering to passwords, social media and travel. In 2019, season one of “The Inside Man” won a silver dolphin at the Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards.
“No other security awareness training provider is coming out with this kind of high-quality, entertaining content to help their customers learn in such an engaging way,” said Perry Carpenter, chief evangelist and strategy officer, KnowBe4. “This is a unique, network-quality comedy-drama series exclusive to KnowBe4’s customers that has become a key differentiator in upping customers’ security awareness training programs. It’s a rare and precious thing for security leaders when end users actually ask for more training, and that’s the behaviour that we are seeing when organisations launch ‘The Inside Man.’ We look forward to continuing to bring our customers the most cutting-edge content to help them better engage their employees in meaningful ways.”
“It was thrilling to witness people thoroughly so engaged in the series when we had a pre-screening at KnowBe4’s global headquarters a few months ago,” said Jim Shields, creative director, Twist & Shout, a KnowBe4 company. “The level of emotion in the room was astonishing – a few people were even crying! What I hope to bring to end users with ‘The Inside Man’ is a way to change the way they think about security awareness training. I want them to be engaged, remember the lessons and walk away with a real appreciation for security.”
