About this talk

David Tutwiler, Director of Information Technology, South Western Communications, knows first hand what it’s like to have a security incident interrupt his evening.

Throughout his many years as an IT Pro, David has learned that embracing security awareness training can help prevent those unsettling emergency calls. While he’s learned much of this on the job, one of his important recommendations is to learn from other IT pros’ experiences. And he’s here to share his insight with you. In this session, David Tutwiler CISSP, and Erich Kron, KnowBe4’s Security Awareness Advocate share their perspectives about the human element of security. Together, they discuss: - Reinforcing responsibility and good behavior with your end users - Advice for gaining leadership buy-in and demonstrating ROI - Tips for success when implementing your own security awareness strategy
