"As for KnowBe4, after a year of saying we needed to do a phishing test and train people, I finally got the OK to do one of their free phishing tests. Our overall percentage across all companies was 30% phish prone. One company was at 45%, and would likely have been around 55% or higher if one of the managers didn't go around yelling to people "Hey don't click on that IT message! It's a fake!" That's the behavior we absolutely want in a real situation, but it skewed our results a little in the test.
"After that, I put together a presentation for management and held mandatory meetings with all managers and GMs. After, I was able to convince my boss and the president that $10/user for a one-year subscription was more than worth it for training that could save us tens of thousands of dollars per year just in lost user and IT staff productivity from dealing with viruses.
"My latest campaign is finishing today, and I plan to send out an email today alerting people of the mandatory training we are instituting. In my opinion, it's an excellent solution to a very dire problem, especially in an environment like ours where a large portion of our users are click-happy."
