Security awareness training for Hudson Valley and Orange County, NY small businesses: phishing tests and short lessons so people stop clicking the fake invoice. SabatAge runs KnowBe4 so you are not the training department.
Most breaches still start with a person clicking something they should not. Firewalls and EDR matter. They do not stop a convincing invoice email. KnowBe4 is how we train the humans—short lessons and fake phishing tests—so your staff get better at spotting the bait.
This is not antivirus. It is not a once-a-year slideshow nobody remembers. We run ongoing phishing simulations and training for Hudson Valley and Orange County, NY shops, and we watch who clicked so we can coach them instead of scolding the whole office.
What you actually get
- Phishing tests that look like real mail—invoices, password resets, shipping notices—not a cartoon from 2014
- Short training when someone fails a test, plus a library you can assign by role
- A phish-report button so people can ping us instead of forwarding the scam to the whole company
- Reporting you can show an insurer or a board: who was tested, who clicked, who finished training
- We run the campaign. You are not buying a portal and becoming the training department.
How this sits with the rest of security
KnowBe4 is the people layer. Layered security is the stack: MFA, email filtering, EDR, backups. Training does not replace those. If someone still clicks, EDR and backups are why the day is recoverable. If you also want the office running after a bad one, that is disaster recovery.
Who this is for
Any office where email is how work happens: attorneys, accountants, medical, contractors, shops with a bookkeeper who pays invoices. If one person can wire money because a fake boss emailed them, you need this more than another firewall rule.
Annual “watch this video and click complete” is what people forget in a month. We would rather test monthly and train the people who actually click.
What we will not claim
- That training makes you unhackable
- That we will fire your staff for failing a test—the point is coaching
- A public price on this page. Headcount and how aggressive the tests are change the number. Ask.
Hudson Valley, specifically
Fifteen to eighty people, Google Workspace or Microsoft 365, no full-time trainer. That is the usual setup here. KnowBe4 is built for that. We set the tests, you tell us if someone should be excused (owner, receptionist, new hire), and we review the results with you.
On fully managed IT we can include awareness as part of coverage. Call (845) 475-8468 or send a message.
