We have some core trainings that we require employees to do before they get access to certain systems at our company. If the Active Directory Sync was 2-way, such that we knowbe4 would push group membership of certain groups back to Active Directory, we could automatically grant access in these systems once someone completes their training.

For example

Mandatory training campaign is rolled out for group "mandatory-training" and once users complete they are added to "mandatory-complete" group. "mandatory-training" group is sync'ed AD -> knowbe4. "mandatory-complete" group is sync'ed knowbe4 -> AD.

Once a user completes the training the are added automatically to mandatory-complete which is then sync'ed to AD and access to various systems is granted.

  Hi Neil,

  Thank you for contributing to the community board. I have gone ahead and submitted a feature request to our development team for this so that they can consider it for future implementation. While not all feature requests are selected for development we do value customer feedback as many product improvements have stemmed from it. Thanks again!

  Definitely would be useful also for putting users in another group when they have missed the training deadline as well. That way they can be placed in the proper user group section for restricted Internet access

  Hi Ben,
  I checked on this one and due to the additional liability, this is something we will not be including on the current road map. We do appreciate customer feedback and suggestions so please don't hesitate to post any other improvements you would like to see.
