There are several areas for improvement. The pricing needs adjustment, the UI needs enhancement, and the management of assignment and completion needs improvement. For instance, when I assign someone a course, it should have a deadline that doesn't automatically increase if the person isn't completing the course. The effectiveness of Kaspersky Security Awareness's interactive modules and real-time cyber scenarios rates at a six. The gamified learning paths rate at a five, indicating definite room for improvement in this area. While we have achieved compliance, the control over the program is limited. Verifying team knowledge is challenging as exam integrity cannot be guaranteed. They need to update the security courses with more real-time or real-life scenarios.
Kaspersky Security Awareness needs improvement in its ability to detect unknown attacks or unknown zero traffic attacks. This aspect could be enhanced to make the solution more robust against emerging threats.
The overall user interface could be improved as it seems outdated. While the content is excellent, updating the design would enhance the experience. Introducing AI technologies to integrate with the training could also allow a more dynamic learning path and help users focus on areas where they struggle.

Enterprises lose millions recovering from staff-related incidents – but traditional training programs usually fail to achieve the desired behavioral changes and motivation. Understanding what lies behind any learning and teaching process helps to build an effective educational program. Our programs not only deliver knowledge, but – more importantly – change habits and form the new behavior patterns that are the real goal of...

I cannot exactly identify what needs improvement since I used it more than a year ago. However, the GUI could be improved.
