The Inside Man series, Seasons 1, 2 and 3 has been specifically developed to harness authentic hacking and social engineering scenarios with edge of the seat, emotionally engaging drama. Each Season is made up of 12 x 5-6 minute continuous episodes that build into a storyline, featuring a lonely hacker - Mark - who is tasked by a sinister controller with taking down a company. Mark soon finds himself on the ‘inside’ unexpectedly forming relationships with colleagues. and finding his loyalties challenged.
Season by season and episode by episode the producers of 'The Inside Man' morph, evolve and adapt the plot-line to demonstrate multiple, real-world security threats in a human setting, taking on social engineering, social media, phishing, physical access, passwords, virtual assistants, mobile apps and deep fakes.
The awards submission relates to Season 3, which has just been launched on to the KnowBe4 'Modstore'. Season 3 finds Mark and his friends on the 'outside', setting up a security consultancy 'Shepherd Security' and being commissioned by an international bank to hack mobile banking app using ninja-level deep fake and social engineering strategies.
While the 'Inside Man' series is intended for KnowBe4 customers, it also has a publicly accessible fan website with behind the scenes extras and substantial clips, plus IMDB pages for each season. There is also a YouTube trailer for each season.
