On September 26th, we released an Inside Man-themed game in KnowBe4, ‘The Inside Man: New Recruits Game’. Complete the game to earn an entry into our prize drawing.
The Inside Man is a soap opera-style training that covers critical cyber security themes in all its episodes. We release episodes of the Inside Man every month in KnowBe4 as our monthly training competition. If you are interested in diving into the series, the entire Season 1 of The Inside Man, as well as episodes 1 – 6 of Season 2 in your ‘Library’ tab in KnowBe4.
This annual competition will be hosted in the KnowBe4 platform. To access KnowBe4, log into the one.wustl.edu portal with your WUSTLKey credentials and search for KnowBe4.
Once in the KnowBe4 platform, navigate to your ‘Library’ tab to access the game. If the game does not appear on your dashboard, please use the search function and look for ‘The Inside Man: New Recruits Game.’
Participants must be current WashU faculty, staff, or students.
We’re excited to show you that security training can be fun, relatable, and informative, and we look forward to rewarding our lucky winners! If you have any questions, please contact ithelp@wustl.edu.
