Friendly Fire: Mitigating Employee Risk

Elevate Security

Recent studies show that 82% of cyber incidents result from unintended human behavior. Further, the errant behavior of only 5% of all users creates most of this risk. This is pretty alarming, and yet no one is talking about it. Modifying the behavior of these few individuals can have a force multiplier effect on reducing overall enterprise cyber risks.

Welcome to Friendly Fire: Mitigating Unintentional User Risk. Where we explore Human Risk, to raise awareness across the industry, and stimulate discussion on how we can create a security culture that better protects all of us, emphasizes personal responsibility, and focuses on enterprise-wide behavior change.

Research now clearly proves that 85% of cyber incidents are caused by errant human behavior. Organizations need better tools and approaches to manage and mitigate the risk of their own users unintentionally aiding attackers. Tune in to enlightening discussions with CISOs, cybersecurity experts, and technologists. They share what they are doing to address these unintentional user risks. Answer the most important questions surrounding this problem: how can we fix this? How can we use data to change people’s behavior? Do we truly understand the overall impact? How can it worsen your operations? It's time you got answers.

This show provides you with hope by examining solutions that many professionals have already tried and tested. Hear about the times they failed, so you can learn the lessons they discovered during their most challenging moments. One episode at a time, raise the dialogue about this matter by exploring unique perspectives of various professionals across different industries.

Regardless of where you are in your cybersecurity journey, you have a role in mitigating these unintended risks. Solving this problem does not only fall to the hands of CISOs of large enterprises. Researchers, digital security personnel, and everyone with a knack for technology must come together and develop possible solutions. These risks can be hard to minimize or eliminate all by yourself. But when doing it as a community, the task becomes more manageable. This podcast is everyone’s first step towards a strong collective effort to make a true change in the digital landscape.

Can you identify the small number of users creating risk for the entire organization? Can you provide them with tools and information to improve their security performance? Can you reach them contextually, when they are most likely to respond to behavior modification? Can you control repeat offenders and intransigents without stymying the entire organization? What about contractors and other affiliated organizations?

Elevate Security is here to shine a light on the unseen problem. If you can correct these unintentional risks, the digital landscape can become safer and more secure for industry leaders, developers, and end-users alike.
