Fable Security
vs. KnowBe4

Prove that you lowered human risk—not just sent a sim.

Compare capabilities

Your employees aren’t endpoints. Stop training them like they are.

Legacy vendors guess who’s at risk. Fable finds out—then does something about it.

Target risk, not roles
Fable ingests existing internal data to spot risky behavior as it happens—then builds groups to send the right intervention, to the right person, at the right moment.
Train for attacks now
Fable’s training and simulations are built around the latest real-world threats—and aimed at the employees who attackers target first.
Build tailored training, fast
No more “ignore that last bit” emails. Fable training builds itself using your actual policies—not theoretical practices that don’t apply to you.
WHO WE ARE

Why we built Fable

Security training has spent twenty years treating employees like the problem to be solved, not the reason security teams exist in the first place.

Employees are seen as the weak link, the human firewall, the device that keeps getting phished. We built Fable because we think that’s exactly backwards.
People are the solution, not the problem.
Your employees aren't the vulnerability. They're the solution—but only when you give them the right information, at the right moment, about threats and actions that are actually relevant to them. 

That's what Fable does. We find who's at risk, train on what's actually happening, and show you what changed.

How employees respond to Fable briefings, training, and simulations

More than 100,000 pieces of direct feedback to-date with a 4.8 out of 5.0 average rating.

“Excellently done! Great job InfoSec! This video was very well made and very clearly heard too.”

“My name pronunciation was perfect! I didn't expect and was pleasantly surprised by it. I have to say, it also got my attention immediately to the video :)”

“Preferred name and pronunciation was correct. I like that the videos are shorter and it's easier to focus and retain small pieces of info vs. an annual much longer training.”

"Many thanks for another useful, concise, and super-helpful security tip! Happy holidays and thank you for all your team does!”

“That was one of the best ways it was ever explained to me. I hope everyone else feels that way.”

“Was this training for Satadog/Splunk targeted to me specifically because I access those tools a lot? If so, this is awesome. Easy to get started for sure. Clicked the link in Slack and off I go.”

“I liked the clear, crisp and to the point approach. Far superior to any other training we've had at BILL.”

“Okay — I'm sharing this information far and wide with family & friends.”

“This is amazing!! I was looking into adding Splunk monitoring and this is a great reminder on being mindful and to never log customer sensitive data. This video would absolutely be on my mind and I am developing new code.”

“The name personalization in the video is a nice touch! I like that the video is short, specific to a particular topic and references BILL. Also, the video has a modern look and feel with an engaging speaker.”

“This is a wonderful start to a series that builds knowledge of the organization about these threats and how they impact us all.”

“Thank you for providing this training! Very concise and relevant information and a good reminder to stay on my toes when opening emails :)”

“Liked the visual and the real time examples. Loved that I wasn't forced to read or flip through pages. Love that it is brief and digestible, unlike those hour long modules.”

“Thank you, much needed information to refresh how to not be a victim.”

“Excellently done! Great job InfoSec! This video was very well made and very clearly heard too.”
