Aikido Security blog ranks nine KnowBe4 alternatives and promotes its Noon workforce security platform

1 fonte(s) · 1 atualização(ões) · publicado 20/10/2026 16:33 · coletado há 2 dias

This Aikido Security blog post ranks nine alternatives to KnowBe4 security awareness training and puts its own platform, Noon Security, first. It is vendor marketing, not incident reporting. The post says KnowBe4 simulations become familiar to employees, that email defense and AI governance are sold as separate products, and that its AI governance offering, Agent Risk Manager, is still a Technical Preview. The listed alternatives are Noon Security, Hoxhunt, Adaptive Security, SoSafe, Proofpoint ZenGuide, Mimecast Engage, Infosec IQ, Cofense and IRONSCALES. The post is based on vendor product and pricing pages plus Aikido's own hands-on view, and it carries no threat data, CVEs or IOCs.

Detalhes técnicos

  • Noon is described as built from Cyberly and Outkept, which joined Aikido in 2026. It covers AI governance, device protection (malicious packages), email protection and simulations. It is in early access.
  • Noon simulations extend to deepfake voice calls and fraudulent texts. Campaigns are chosen by role and past behavior, and lessons are delivered via Slack, Teams or Google Chat.
  • Hoxhunt, Adaptive Security and SoSafe offer adaptive or multichannel simulations. ZenGuide uses a ThreatFlip workflow that turns detected phishing into simulation templates. Infosec IQ Enterprise delivers SCORM content to an external LMS.
  • KnowBe4 Defend and PhishER Plus are separate products for inbound email defense and reported-message response.

Remediação

  • Identify the reason for switching and list required topics, languages, accessibility needs, reports and integrations.
  • Export KnowBe4 training and phishing activity reports before access ends. Native import into another platform is a separate capability.
  • Compare equivalent protection scope and contract terms, not just training price.
  • Avoid duplicate assignments and overlapping simulations while both platforms are live, and test the replacement before retiring a KnowBe4 function.
