KnowBe4 E-mail Exposure Check
-
Has anyone out there used the e-mail exposure check tool from KnowBe4?
-
@networknerd Yes, it works well. I get monthly emails of exposures with the emails of our company posted online so we can remove them.

Are you also KnowBe4 customers or just using this free tool?

Same here - we just signed with them not too long ago. After you mentioned you used the tool, I decided to go ahead and check it out. There are a ton of invalid addresses on the list but also some that are valid. It's time to dig into the data a bit further.
-
Yeah, I mean I needed to go through the information as well.
-
We are using them and get the monthly check also. That reminds me... I really need to setup another training campaign for my users.

Yes, the E-mail Exposure check works great and is real eye opening. What KnowBe4 has to offer is great. However, I should mention the sales guys for them are relentless. They will not leave you alone until you sign up with them. Even though we got a lot of value from the free exposure check my boss didn't approve it at this time. We will look to probably sign up with them next year. The sales team is pretty pushy in my opinion though, unless I just got unlucky with the sales rep I dealt with.
-
@magicmarker I've had similar experiences with their sales staff. They are fairly relentless. But that's what extra email accounts and google voice numbers are for... blocking sales dicks.
-
@magicmarker I actually contacted my account manager and stated that I would prefer one call and so far they have honored it. Hopefully they do that for you.
-
@dbeato ok, but didn't you say you're a paying customer? Big difference... when those sales sharks smell "free tier customer" blood, they swarm.
-
They POUNCE on anyone using their free services.
-
@rojoloco Yes, you are correct. And before that yes, they sent me multiple emails and calls. I did not deny that.

I used one of their free things once... It was a nonstop barrage of sales spam. Glad I was able to delete that BS email, I couldn't imagine actually giving them my real work email. Would probably take a lawyer to get them to stop.

Yep.. they called me already today.

And they pounce quickly (probably within a couple of hours of you using one of their free tools). Even when I used the EEC tool mentioned here, I received a follow up from our Customer Success Manager within an hour.
