New Benchmarking Feature! Security Culture Survey (SCS)
We are excited to announce that the KnowBe4 Industry Benchmarking feature has been expanded to now include industry benchmark comparison data for KnowBe4's Security Culture Survey (SCS).
KnowBe4's science-based SCS helps you tailor training to address proficiency gaps and weaknesses, as well as monitor the impact your security awareness training program has on improving your users' knowledge and sentiment to security awareness over time.
The Security Culture Survey (SCS) Benchmarks feature lets you compare your organization's average security culture score with other organizations in your industry. When you use the SCS, you get an overview of the seven dimensions that make up your security culture and an overall security culture score for your organization.
Within the Dashboard of your KnowBe4 console, you will now see your organization's SCS score alongside the Phish-prone™ Percentage and Security Awareness Proficiency Assessment (SAPA) scores.
This new comparison data is available across all KnowBe4 training subscription levels.
Learn more on how you can take advantage of the SCS Benchmarking Feature when implementing your security awareness training program within your organization!
