KnowBe4 is a platform for security awareness training and simulated phishing. Organisations train employees to recognise social engineering, run safe simulated phishing campaigns to test and reinforce behaviour, and measure risk such as the Phish-prone Percentage over time.

The Phish-prone Percentage (PPP) is the share of users who fail a simulated phishing test (for example by clicking a link or entering credentials). Tracking it over time shows whether training is reducing the organisation's susceptibility to phishing.

No. It is an independent practice test written to the publicly available KnowBe4 content outline for 2026 and 2027, for checking your readiness before you book the real exam. Passing earns a Science of Apps certificate rather than the official credential.
