One of the most critical factors in meeting compliance requirements is your users’ understanding of those requirements. Just as security awareness training creates a strong human firewall, Compliance Plus content gives your users the tools they need to help mitigate risk.
This article has been written for users who may be unfamiliar with the KSAT console. If you are a compliance expert with little experience in the console, please reach out to your admin with any questions that you may have. For best results, we recommend running a compliance training campaign once every quarter.
Finding Compliance Plus Training Content
Before you can create a training campaign, you must first select the content to include in that campaign. First, find Compliance Plus content in the ModStore. Then, add the desired content to your account’s library.
If you are browsing the ModStore, look for items with the orange compliance badge next to the title. If you would like to specifically search for Compliance Plus content, follow the steps below:
- Log in to your KSAT console.
- Navigate to the ModStore tab.
- On the Browse subtab, click on Additional Filters.
- From the Subscription Level drop-down menu, select Compliance Plus to browse all content specific to the Compliance Plus add-on.
- If you find the content you are interested in using, you can hover your cursor over the image and click View Details for more information. On the item details page, you can read the full content description and view the content.
- To add the content to your library, click the + Add to Library button. Once added, the content will be listed in the Library subtab, beneath the ModStore tab.
Once you have added all of the Compliance Plus training you would like to your library, you can move on to Creating a Compliance Training Campaign.
