If there are two topics that have gone from “nice to have” to business critical faster than almost anything else, they are sustainability and artificial intelligence. This month’s Compliance Plus updates are built to meet that moment, with new content covering EU AI Act compliance, ESG risk recognition, and responsible AI use in the workplace, all delivered in formats designed to keep learners engaged. We have also added targeted modules for global teams, including Germany’s BFSG accessibility requirements, India’s POSH Act, and new Japanese-language content.

I have said it before, and I will say it again. Every time I think the KB4 Studios UK team has peaked, they somehow manage to outdo themselves. Season 7 of The Inside Man is here, and I could not be more proud of what this team has created. We celebrated the world premiere at KB4-CON, and the reaction in that room said it all. We also had another premiere on June 1st at the iconic Odeon Cinema Leicester Square in London — the same legendary theater where we have gathered fans in the past from around the world to experience this series on the big screen.

The era of “typing into a box” is over. For years, we viewed artificial intelligence as a digital assistant—a sophisticated autocomplete tool that waited for human input. But according to Martin Kraemer, KnowBe4’s CISO Advisor for Europe and the Middle East, that dynamic has shifted. We have moved from asking AI questions to giving AI jobs.

Businesses increasingly identify cyber risk as a core operational concern. Yet many cyber incidents still stem from basic, preventable vulnerabilities such as susceptibility to phishing, weak passwords, unpatched software and misconfigured systems. Insurers can play an important role in helping to raise firms’ cybersecurity hygiene and enhancing overall cyber resilience. However, cyber insurance penetration in certain market segments and regions remains low. Estimates suggest only around 10% of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) globally have cyber insurance, and in some countries it could be much lower, especially among the very smallest firms.
