KnowBe4 Launches New Compliance Audit Readiness Assessment Tool

No-cost web-based tool helps organizations assess their ability to meet compliance requirements

Tampa Bay, FL (November 3, 2020) – KnowBe4, the provider of the world’s largest security awareness training and simulated phishing platform, today announced it is offering a new, no-cost tool called the Compliance Audit Readiness Assessment (CARA).

CARA is a five-minute self-assessment tool that asks IT and cybersecurity professionals to rate their readiness for compliance requirement. These ratings are aggregated to help these professionals identify potential gaps or deficiencies in their current cybersecurity preparedness initiatives. CARA provides an analysis of the results and generates a report with customized guidance to help IT and cybersecurity professionals define what technical controls are required for a given scope to meet compliance.

New frameworks such as the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) can make compliance more challenging. The CMMC is a unified standard for implementing cybersecurity across the Defense Industrial Base (DIB), which includes over 300,000 companies in the supply chain. Given that the CMMC is new, there is a general lack of guidance on how to best meet requirements for the framework.

“Compliance audits can be a real headache for IT and cybersecurity professionals, especially given that there are new frameworks coming out that they need to follow, yet little to no help is offered,” said Stu Sjouwerman, CEO, KnowBe4. “CARA should help to make preparing for compliance audits far less painful.”

The KnowBe4 Compliance Manager for Governance, Risk and Compliance (KCM GRC) helps IT and cybersecurity professionals streamline their compliance audit requirements. CARA leverages a subset of pre-built assessment templates available within KCM GRC that offers in-platform control guidance suggestions to help create these types of controls.
