Andrews & Springer LLC Files Lawsuit Against KnowBe4, Inc Andrews & Springer LLC announced that a lawsuit has been filed by another law firm on behalf of shareholders of KnowBe4, Inc. for possible corporate misconduct and violations of federal securities laws. On October 11, 2022, KnowBe4 and Vista Equity Partners (Vista) publicly announced the signing of a definitive merger agreement pursuant to which Vista will acquire KnowBe4 in a merger worth $4.6 billion. As a result of the merger, KnowBe4 shareholders are only anticipated to receive $24.90 per share in cash in exchange for each share of KnowBe4 (the Merger). While the Company claims that shareholders will receive a premium for their shares, the merger price is 11% less than the $28.00 per share price target set by Cowen and Company and Truist Securities in August and September 2022, just months prior to the announcement of the Merger. The consideration is also less than KnowBe4’s 52-week high of $27.40 per share. A KnowBe4 shareholder represented by another law firm has filed a complaint against KnowBe4 for federal securities violations. The complaint was filed in the United States District Court, Southern District of New York, Case No. 1:22-cv-09727. According to the lawsuit, which was filed on November 15, 2022, defendants filed a proxy statement (the Proxy) with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in connection with the Merger. The Proxy omits material information with respect to the Merger, which renders the Proxy false and misleading. Accordingly, plaintiff seeks that the Merger should be enjoined until defendants disclose more information to stockholders. Recent Insider Transactions Derivative • Dec 08

KnowBe4's New SecurityCoach Helps to Reduce Risky Behavior With Real-Time Security Coaching KnowBe4 announced it is introducing SecurityCoach, a new, first of its kind product which offers real-time security coaching aimed at reducing risky behavior. HDR correlates, identifies and responds to the tens of thousands of detected events related to the risky security behavior of an organization's users being generated within their existing security infrastructure. Social engineering techniques like phishing, spear phishing and impersonation are being used by cybercriminals to manipulate an organization's employees in attempts to hack into their organization, causing significant downtime and security breach risks.

However, according to IDC, less than 3% of IT spending is allocated to help secure the human layer. SecurityCoach helps IT/security professionals to develop a strong security culture by enabling real-time security coaching of their users in response to risky security behavior. Leveraging an organization's existing security stack, IT/security professionals can configure their real-time coaching campaigns to immediately deliver a SecurityTip to their users related to a detected event. SecurityCoach provides an organization's users with contextual, real-time coaching that reinforces security awareness training and policies, improves knowledge retention and helps them understand the risks associated with their behaviors.

KnowBe4 Kicks Off Ransomware Awareness Month With Resource Kit KnowBe4 announced the release of a resource kit for IT managers as part of a month-long effort in July to increase awareness of ransomware, its many forms and methods used by cyber criminals to extort funds. Some of the resources for download include a Ransomware Master Class, Ransomware Rescue Manual, infographics, posters, digital signage and more. Ransomware is a type of malicious attack where attackers encrypt an organization's data and demand payment to restore access. This has evolved to include the exfiltration and threatened exposure of valuable information, compounding the extortion. This is one of the many ways bad actors take advantage of the human element in cybersecurity, which is involved in 82% of cyber attacks according to Verizon's 2022 Data Breach Investigations Report. Globally ransomware costs are escalating from a reported$325 million loss in 2015 to a potential of $265 billion in 2031, making it one of the most predominate and dangerous forms of cyberattacks. In 2021, the FBI's Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3) received a record number of 847,376 reported complaints with potential losses exceeding $6.9 billion. This has led to multiple warnings by government agencies, including the European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA) heralding ransomware as a prime threat.

KnowBe4 Launches New Compliance Plus Training Module KnowBe4 announced the launch of new training content called Compliance Plus. To minimize risk and possible threats in certain sectors, government and regulatory bodies have enacted an avalanche of legislation and compliance controls. Compliance training has been a continuing challenge: out-of-date and generic, boring content, low employee engagement and the training modules are simply too long. Many organizations also struggle with the problem of not being able to easily customize content relevant for their specific needs. Consequently, very few have been able to move compliance training beyond a tick-box approach. Compliance Plus training offers an interactive and engaging experience with real-life simulated scenarios to help teach employees how to respond in a challenging situation. The content addresses difficult topics like sexual harassment, diversity and inclusion, discrimination and business ethics. Compliance Plus includes various types of media formats and reinforcement materials to support compliance training programs. Annonce • May 21
