KnowBe4 National Cybersecurity Awareness Month – PRODUCT UPDATES – October 2020
NEW!
Language Localisation in the Phish Alert Button for Microsoft 365.
We are excited to announce the availability of KnowBe4’s enhanced Phish Alert Button (PAB) for Microsoft 365 with the new language-aware feature!
With this new version of the PAB, you can now enable languages in your Phish Alert settings. You can then automatically display the preferred language based on your users’ system language settings. The same languages (22) offered for the KnowBe4 Learner Experience, are supported for this version of the Phish Alert Button. Also, you have the ability to add custom languages by adding them to your manifest file and reinstalling the PAB.
As a result, this localisation enables your users to interact in a more immersive experience for reporting suspicious emails through their Phish Alert Button. Plus this also reinforces the learning experience when accessing their KnowBe4 training in their preferred language.

exploqii
Three new video modules from exploqii were released in September.
- Money Mules
A tempting job advertisement promises high commissions and demands only a small service in return – making a private bank account available for a transaction. But behind the apparently reputable offer is nothing less than money laundering. And those who take up the offer, risk being liable to prosecution. Therefore, your customers can learn about the ‘money mules’ scam in this module. - Internet Explorer: End of Support
The first steps onto the internet: more than a few users took them with Microsoft’s Internet Explorer. It hasn’t always been the most innovative web browser. However it certainly is one of the most widespread. In the environment of larger organisations in particular, it may represent a risk because older versions are often used. This video module explains why and how important it is to switch to a successor web browser. - Overview: Cyberattacks
What is ransomware – or phishing? And what does it have to do with your data? And your organisation’s security? But above all: How can your users protect themselves? To explain, this video module provides an initial overview of the most widespread attack methods and raises awareness of data security. It also shows that cybersecurity training sessions are an effective way to protect your data, employees, and organisations.
All exploqii content is available at the Diamond subscription level.
El Pescador
Remote Work
Remote work is now a reality for many employees. It is important to remember how to ensure the security of your organisational data. Not to mention all the information from your employees, suppliers, and customers.
You can use this poster to promote and reinforce the “Remote Work” series as part of your training campaign.
