KnowBe4, ITWeb, and ITWeb Africa are inviting senior IT security professionals to a  complimentary webinar on 3 December.

The webinar, titled "Decoding the New Era of Phishing Attacks", will uncover the methods, motivations and technologies driving today’s most dangerous attacks.

During the session, KnowBe4’s SVP of Threat Intelligence, Jack Chapman, will draw on findings from KnowBe4’s latest Phishing Threat Trends Report and delve into the evolving world of phishing and social engineering.

From AI-powered deception to the hijacking of legitimate services, you’ll learn how cyber criminals sidestep secure email gateways, exploit trust, and orchestrate multi-channel campaigns that no traditional defence can stop alone.

This webinar is free to attend and open to IT security decision-makers based in South Africa, Nigeria and Kenya. Participants will receive real-world insights, practical defence strategies, and an exclusive look at what 2026’s threat landscape could hold, according to KnowBe4.

You will gain insight into:

  • The tactics cybercriminals are using to bypass your native and secure email gateway (SEG) defences
  • The latest ways AI is being weaponised
  • How cybercriminals are hijacking legitimate platforms to slip past your defences
  • The risk from multichannel attacks
  • KnowBe4’s predictions for the threat landscape in 2026
  • Best practice guidance on stopping phishing attacks in your organisation.
