What KnowBe4 represents in this dataset

KnowBe4 — security awareness training and simulated phishing platform, the largest vendor in that category.

Directory category: Saas. The classification comes from include: mechanisms in the SPF record. It describes observed DNS infrastructure, not a commercial relationship and not the placement of any individual message.

What the 2026-09-14 snapshot shows about KnowBe4

Across 153 distinct TLDs its top three are .com (55.6%), .org (11.7%), .edu (4.3%) — together 71.6% of the 3,406 domains, which makes the footprint narrow — three TLDs cover most of it, which is typical of a regional or single-market operator. The service most often observed on the same domains is Microsoft 365 (Mailbox, 1,894 domains, 55.6% of them), followed by Google Workspace (14.3%). Its share of SPF-publishing domains moved -0.02 pp in 30 days — inside the daily noise of list rotation. Directly comparable by the same detection rule: Shopify, Pardot (Salesforce), CodeTwo Email Signatures 365. Ranking between them reflects what is published in DNS, not delivery quality or volume sent. All figures come from a single daily DNS snapshot (2026-09-14); a domain appears here when its published records match the include: mechanisms in the SPF record rule, which is an infrastructure fact, not a commercial relationship.
