About The Entry

The Inside Man series has been specifically developed to present authentic hacking and social engineering scenarios to audiences using edge of the seat, emotionally engaging drama. Each Season is made up of 12 x 5-10 minute continuous episodes that build into an ongoing storyline, which is now in its seventh, climactic season.

The series follows a reformed hacker, Mark Shepherd, as he builds a new life. Along the way, Mark makes new friends and allies to tackle threats including social engineering, CEO fraud, pipeline takeovers, devastatingly powerful AIs and more. As the stakes rise ever higher, Mark and his team must contend with villains from their past, shadowy international security services and old friends gone rogue, as they face global cybersecurity threats.

Season 7 of the series launched on the KnowBe4 ‘Modstore’ in May 2026, and sees old allies become new enemies, as a former team member embarks on a relentless quest for revenge. Mark and his friends must decide who they can trust as they race against time to stop Maurice and his stolen AI before it’s too late.

As the story and seasons of the series have progressed, the producers of 'The Inside Man' have evolved and adapted the plot-line to demonstrate multiple, real-world security threats in a human and relatable setting. Fully embracing the power of drama and storytelling has enabled the creative team to craft a groundbreaking and highly successful training series that has enthusiastic fans around the globe.
