| am here. | believe that Mr. Codagnone is here to answer any questions the Committee may have.
Mayor Donchess
Could someone give us a brief explanation as to what this is?
Bruce Codagnone, IT Director
The KnowBe4 is the security training that we do for all employees in the area of spam and phishing attacks to
ensure that all employees are helpful in protecting the City’s assets. We also do tests to employees ona
regular basis to whether or not they fall for a phishing attack and in some cases have to be retrained. So this
is a service that we subscribe to for that purpose.
