Did you know that 91% of successful data breaches start with a phishing attack? 

And that the number of individuals aged 20 or younger who report being victims of cyber-fraud surged more than 150% from 2018-2021?

Security leaders KnowBe4 recognise this trend. Their research has found that individuals often have a false sense of security, believing their computer or phone’s antivirus software will protect them. This is despite 7-10% of scams making it past even very advanced filters. 

KnowBe4 believes educating individuals so that they can recognise threats coupled with deploying top-tier technology is the best way to tackle this issue. 

That’s why they offer the world's largest library of security awareness training content; including interactive modules, videos, games, posters and newsletters. 

KnowBe4 wants this knowledge to reach as many people as possible. That’s why they recently partnered with the Center for Cyber Safety and Education to launch the KnowBe4 Scholarship for Black Americans.

The recipient of the award will receive a $10,000 scholarship. KnowBe4 has made a lasting commitment to increase diversity, equity and inclusion efforts within cybersecurity – and believes the industry should be accessible to all.
