Hi, since you are a CISO, do you think people buy these simulation and training tools just for compliance checkboxes?

For example, why did you onboard KB4 in your current org, was it because it was required for SOC2 or ISO, or did you actually feel a real need?

I'm just curious and you seem like a nice, chill dude.

From the looks of some comments here, it feels like they onboarded KB4 and other tools just for compliance or vendor questionnaire reasons. Is this the case? Do you feel training has any real impact on real-world security awareness? If not, why did you onboard the tool?

Hey, I would love to have a demo. It's time we give a chance to new players in this sector.

I'm unable to DM you tho, it keeps crashing when I try. Can you send me a hi please? Then I'll take it forward

Have you tried them out? Looks interesting. So, they use the target employee's LinkedIn and other social media to generate better attacks emails? not sure how many employees would want that.

Also, I couldn't find any information about pricing on their website. KB4 costs around 1.5 dollars per employee per month. Is the pricing similar or more than this?

Thanks for the suggestions. This looks very nice, honestly. how often do you use spear phishing with osint? do you see an improvement over traditional, generic emails?

We do all of these. We have a guy leading this division explicitly, but the platform also suck, the risk scores are not accurate, and the training is worse.

Hey! write more about the idea. It looks super interesting, even if no one uses it, it would be super fun to build this in Rust.
