For much of my IT career, cybersecurity training has looked exactly the same. Once a year, IT forces everyone to watch a few videos and take a multiple-choice quiz. This training does check a box, but it rarely changes actual user behavior or provides a ton of new insights. However, AI will begin to completely flip how training is done. A new integration announced recently by Dashlane and KnowBe4 gives us a clear view of how AI and real-time automation will change cybersecurity training for the good.<\/p>\n

About Apple @ Work: Bradley Chambers managed an enterprise IT network from 2009 to 2021. Through his experience deploying and managing firewalls, switches, a mobile device management system, enterprise-grade Wi-Fi, 1000s of Macs, and 1000s of iPads, Bradley will highlight ways in which Apple IT managers deploy Apple devices, build networks to support them, train users, stories from the trenches of IT management, and ways Apple could improve its products for IT departments.<\/p>\n

according to the data Dashlane, one-third of all corporate logins use weak or compromised credentials that fall outside SSO coverage and are unprotected by any official password manager vault. If an employee auto-fills a compromised password from their Safari\u2019s iCloud Keychain into a corporate portal, IT never knows it happened. The security team cannot train a user on a mistake they cannot see. All things considered, SSO integration for all corporate apps should be the ultimate goal.<\/p>\n

\u201cEmployees are the first line of defense against attackers, making it critical that enterprises take the opportunity to turn users\u2019 risky behavior into a learning moment,\u201d said John Bennett, chief executive officer, Dashlane. \u201cDashlane\u2019s unique vantage point in the browser paired with KnowBe4\u2019s wide-array of training content creates a vehicle for organizations to automatically instill a more proactive security posture across their workforce.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is where the Dashlane and KnowBe4 integration is pretty interesting to me. Dashlane\u2019s Omnix platform sits at the browser level, giving it visibility into credential risks across all employee passwords in the browser, even if they are stored outside the company vault.<\/p>\n

When an employee attempts to enter their password on a phishing page or uses a compromised credential, Dashlane intervenes. But instead of just blocking the action and creating an alert for an IT admin to review later, it actually triggers a targeted training through KnowBe4.<\/p>\n

This automated and targeted approach is exactly how AI and automated systems will handle human risk going forward. If an employee makes a mistake, the system will detect it, blocks it, and immediately delivers a micro-training module that explains exactly what the user did wrong, while the context is still fresh in their mind. It\u2019s not meant to be a gotcha, but a correction with explanation.<\/p>\n

\u201cIntegrating KnowBe4 with Dashlane Omnix took the friction out of improving employee security habits\u2014a significant part of our security posture. It also keeps accountability with the user,\u201d said Scott Holleran, senior vice president of technologies, Vertex Service Partners. \u201cMy team gets to spend less time on password security and more time focused on building our security program.\u201d<\/p>\n

After 20+ years in IT, I believe security awareness training is only truly effective when tied to a specific event. Calendar-driven training simply does not work for modern cyber threats. As IT teams deal with an increasingly complex threat landscape and the rise of agentic AI risks, they do not have the time to manually analyze individual alerts and assign follow-up training. It\u2019s similar to how correcting the behavior of your small child or pet is really only applicable in the moment.<\/p>\n

The integration of real-time threat detection with automated, contextual education removes the friction that prevents employees from improving their security habits. By turning a risky click into an immediate training moment, IT teams can spend less time creating training that people are just happy to click through and focus more on addressing issues in the moment. KnowBe4 is a leader in this space, and it makes sense for Dashlane to partner with them.<\/p>\n
