KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training in Abu Dhabi: Pricing, Phishing Simulations & Setup
Most Abu Dhabi businesses already have a firewall, endpoint protection and an email gateway, and still get breached because one employee clicked a phishing link. KnowBe4 is the security awareness training platform built to close that gap. This guide explains what KnowBe4 includes, how KnowBe4 pricing and cost work, how its phishing simulations run, and how a deployment is set up. Ready for a quote?

What Is KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?
KnowBe4 is a security awareness training and simulated phishing platform. It sends realistic phishing emails to your staff, records who clicks, enters credentials or reports the email, and automatically assigns training to the people who need it. The KnowBe4 training platform is cloud-based, so nothing is installed on your own servers. NetDesire sets it up as part of a wider cyber security service in Abu Dhabi.
KnowBe4 Pricing and Cost in Abu Dhabi
KnowBe4 pricing is subscription based: you pay per user, per year, and the price depends on the number of users and the feature level. Higher levels add more training content, more phishing templates and extra reporting and automation. A fixed price is not published for the UAE, so the quickest way to get an exact KnowBe4 cost is a quote based on your user count.
What changes the KnowBe4 cost:
- Number of users (staff you want to train and test)
- Feature level (content library size, reporting, automation)
- Subscription length (1, 2 or 3 years)
- Optional managed administration from NetDesire
KnowBe4 Phishing Simulations
KnowBe4 Phishing Simulations
KnowBe4 phishing simulations use the techniques real attackers use: fake invoices, supplier impersonation, CEO fraud and fake Microsoft 365 login pages. Staff who click are not punished; they are shown short, relevant training straight away. Results show who clicked, who entered credentials and who reported the email, so management and IT can see where human risk sits. If you use Microsoft 365, simulations can target Microsoft 365 login phishing, one of the most common attacks in the region; see our Microsoft partner services in Abu Dhabi.
AI-Driven Phishing Simulation (PhishFlip)
PhishFlip turns real phishing emails that reach your employees’ inboxes into training exercises, so staff practise on current attacks. For the email layer that stops these messages before they arrive, see Mimecast email security in Abu Dhabi.
KnowBe4 Security Training Library
The KnowBe4 security training library covers phishing recognition, password hygiene, social engineering, physical security and USB drop attacks, in short modules written for non-IT staff. Content is available in multiple languages including Arabic, and includes Kevin Mitnick security awareness training. Training is assigned automatically from simulation results, so the most at-risk employees get the most relevant modules without manual work from IT.

KnowBe4 for Compliance in the UAE and Saudi Arabia
KnowBe4 reports (training completion, simulation results, trend data) can be used as evidence of staff awareness during audits. Frameworks that expect awareness training include ISO 27001, the UAE Information Assurance Regulation and, for Saudi operations, the NCA Essential Cybersecurity Controls. Awareness reporting fits naturally into managed IT and security services in Abu Dhabi.
