Topic: Lessons Learned from 30 Years of Security Awareness Efforts

Organisations acknowledge that employees are often the weakest link, yet efforts to improve ‘user awareness’ tend to rely upon available tools and not true experience. Drawing on three decades of awareness efforts and experience improving true security behaviours, Ira Winkler will dispel many commonly held beliefs about security awareness, detailing what consistently works and what does not.

Learning Objectives:
1: Learn and apply what works consistently across hundreds of organisational awareness efforts.
2: Learn from research in other disciplines that improves awareness efforts.
3: Learn how to create a security culture that drives individual security behaviours.
