KnowBe4, the leader in digital workforce security, securing both AI agents and humans, today announced it was named to the Constellation ShortList™ for Human Risk Management Solutions in Q3 2026. The technology vendors and service providers included in this program deliver critical transformation initiative requirements for early adopters and fast-follower organizations.
The KnowBe4 Platform gives security teams everything they need to manage human and AI agent risk. AI-powered Security Awareness Training and simulated phishing train teams to recognize real threats, while PhishER Plus blocks malicious emails before they reach the inbox. Real-Time Coaching delivers coaching at the moment of risk, instead of relying solely on scheduled training. Powered by AIDA (AI Defense Agents), the Platform automatically identifies high-risk behavior and delivers targeted interventions, protecting the entire workforce, human and AI agents alike. Compliance Plus supports ongoing regulatory and security-culture training.
“Securing the modern workforce requires shifting from reactive threat management to proactive, continuous risk reduction,” said Bryan Palma, CEO at KnowBe4. “As AI agents join human employees across every department, the attack surface expands exponentially. Our platform gives security leaders the visibility and automated response needed to pinpoint risk, deliver instant coaching, and reduce threats across both human employees and AI agents.”
“The push for business transformation via digital and AI has never been greater,” said R “Ray” Wang, CEO and founder at Constellation Research. “In the Age of AI, organizations seek to achieve exponential efficiency with their technology investments. The ShortList provides a jump start in their transformation journey.”
