Why choose KnowBe4 in Saudi Arabia
Most attacks still start with a person clicking a link or approving a request. Firewalls and endpoint tools catch a lot, but not everything. Security awareness training teaches staff what to look for, and phishing simulations show who still needs help.
KnowBe4 is a well-known platform for this work, and Waves Telecom resells it in Saudi Arabia. KnowBe4 lists Arabic among its supported languages for training modules, simulated phishing templates and the learner interface. That matters when your team is a mix of Arabic and English speakers.
Waves does more than sell the licence. We set up the platform, choose the content, run the phishing campaigns and send you clear reports. Your managers see progress without learning another tool, and your IT team does not have to run campaigns on top of daily support work.
- Short training videos and modules for all staff
- Simulated phishing emails based on real attack styles
- Arabic and English content and learner interface
- Reports by department, user and campaign
Security awareness training in Saudi cybersecurity rules
Saudi frameworks treat staff awareness as a core control. The NCA's NCNICC-1:2025 controls for private companies include awareness as one of the governance sub-components. They apply to entities the NCA notifies.
Awareness training is also a common part of Aramco CCC readiness work. Auditors want to see that training happened, who completed it and how staff performed. KnowBe4 reports give you that evidence in one place.
Training also supports your other controls. DMARC stops criminals using your exact domain, and email filtering catches most malicious messages. Trained staff are the last check when a well-made phishing email or a fake payment request still reaches an inbox.
NCNICC-1:2025 lists awareness as one of five Cybersecurity Governance sub-components.
How Waves runs your KnowBe4 programme
Baseline phishing test
We send a first simulated phishing email to see how many staff click before any training.
Set up users and languages
We sync users from Microsoft 365 or Google and assign Arabic or English content to each group.
Assign training
We choose short modules for all staff and extra content for finance, HR and management.
Monthly simulations
We run regular phishing tests with different templates, so staff stay alert.
Report and improve
We send a short report each quarter and target extra training at users who keep clicking.

Frequently asked questions
Is KnowBe4 training available in Arabic?
Yes. KnowBe4 lists Arabic among its supported languages for training modules, simulated phishing templates and the learner interface. We assign Arabic or English content per user group.
Will staff know the phishing emails are tests?
No, the simulations are meant to look real. If someone clicks, they see a short explanation and can be given extra training. We agree the approach with management first.
Does KnowBe4 help with Aramco CCC?
It gives you training records and phishing results, which are useful evidence during CCC readiness. We have supported 150+ companies through Aramco CCC, and all of them passed. The certificate is issued only after an audit by an Aramco Authorized Audit Firm.
How much staff time does training take?
Most modules are short, often a few minutes each. You can spread them across the year, so staff are not taken away from work for long. We can also set reminders for staff who have not finished their assigned modules.
Can you run the programme for us?
Yes. We handle setup, campaigns and reporting. Your team only needs to review the results and follow up with repeat clickers.
How many users do we need to start?
KnowBe4 licences are sold per user, so the programme can fit small and large teams. Tell us your headcount and we will quote the right subscription.
Do you train management separately?
Yes. Managers and finance staff are common targets for fake payment requests. We assign them extra modules on these attacks.
