KnowBe4, a security awareness training and simulated phishing platform provider, has integrated vendor risk management capabilities into its KCM governance, risk and compliance (GRC) offering.
KCM GRC enables organizations to perform assessments to measure third-party vendor risk, KnowBe4 said. After an initial vendor risk management assessment is completed, organizations can continually monitor against risk levels.
Furthermore, KCM GRC allows organizations to track vendor risk management insights within the platform, according to KnowBe4. KCM GRC also includes free and unlimited support.
Introducing KnowBe4's Phishing Email Reply Test
In addition to vendor risk management capabilities for KCM GRC, KnowBe4 this month announced Phishing Reply Test (PRT), a web-based tool to help organizations determine if their employees will respond to phishing emails.
PRT allows an organization to select and send an email template to employees and phish for responses, KnowBe4 indicated. It also provides insights into the number of employees who fall victim to a simulated phishing attack so an organization can tailor its cybersecurity training program accordingly.
