Human error is the cause of over 95% of data breaches and the weakest aspect of cybersecurity in nearly all organizations. These errors guarantee that hackers can easily gain access to almost any network in the world and take complete control of systems, data and more. This chapter outlines the top mistakes organizations make in security awareness and why most companies are failing to properly prepare their users for cyber attacks. Each point is accompanied by actionable data derived from real-world training program successes and failures. Attendees will learn how to measure human risk accurately and build programs effective at preparing users for attacks that hack people instead of systems. Strong user security awareness can prevent nearly all cyber incidents and significantly reduce risk exposure.
