About this talk

In today’s world of intense cybersecurity awareness, the daunting task of securing your workforce while employees are working from home can be very overwhelming. To address this issue most Information Technology and Information Security staff focus on digital factors, but it is important to not overlook the human factors. The biggest human factor in Cyber Security is human behavior and the issues that result directly and indirectly from how we think, behave, and act. In this presentation I will cover the most common digital and non-digital threats I have encountered that are designed to take aim at exploiting human nature and are designed to “steer” how we act and react, as well as common mistakes in configurations and policies that can drastically impact any organizations “readiness” to protect against cyber attack. The goal of this presentation is that by the end of it you will be in a much better place of understanding the threats you and your organization face, and what you can do to resolve these issues through unified threat management, utilization of a multilayer cybersecurity approach, automation platforms in the cloud, and end user education.
