AI is evolving at breakneck speed. Elon Musk recently said: "I've never seen any technology advance faster than AI compute.  We are on the edge of the biggest technology revolution ever. As in the Chinese curse; we are living in the most interesting of times.

Enter AIDA, KnowBe4's latest leap in fortifying security culture and managing human risk through the power of GenAI.

AIDA to the Rescue

We just announced and demonstrated KnowBe4's new Artificial Intelligence Defense Agents (AIDA) at our KB4-CON conference last week. AIDA is not just another tool; it's a game-changer in empowering you to create a strong security culture.

What's Special About AIDA?

AIDA was designed to revolutionize how organizations approach security awareness training. AIDA provides a tailored learning experience that addresses the unique needs of each user. This means not just any training, but the right kind of training (including phishing simulations) at the right time to the right audience. Early tests show promising results, pointing towards a future where defenses against AI-assisted threats are not just reactive, but proactive and robust.

Six Years of AI Experience

At KnowBe4, diving deep into AI is nothing new. For nearly six years, we've been exploring AI from both sides of the fence - understanding how it can be used in attacks and how we can harness its power for defense. Through rigorous testing, research, and simulations, we've kept a step ahead, developing strategies to counter AI-enabled threats.

A Message from Me - KnowBe4's CEO

"Our journey with AI has always been about empowering our customers to safeguard their organizations better. With AIDA, we're pushing the boundaries further, using hyper-personalization to craft engaging, effective training. It's about preparing employees not just for today's threats, but for the sophisticated deepfakes of tomorrow."

Looking Ahead

AIDA symbolizes KnowBe4's unwavering commitment to innovation and providing cutting-edge security products. It's a testament to our belief in the transformative power of AI in creating a secure, aware, and resilient organizational culture. As we release AIDA this year, we look forward to not just countering threats, but defining the future of cybersecurity education.
