Cyber threats continue to surge, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, becoming more costly to businesses suffering a breach. One reason for this is that hackers find it easier to trick people than to trick machines, making your employees a bigger target for the nefarious.

When it comes to defending against these attacks, more security and risk professionals are investing in technology-based solutions to automate their defences rather than training employees to recognise and defend against these types of attacks. One reason for this is that, while training vendors have typically done a good job creating awareness by training end-users to understand risks, they’ve fallen short of creating long-lasting positive behaviour, especially without training that’s used to reinforce lessons learned in the courses throughout the year. With proper training and the right incentives, employees can be a more robust solution to many organisational problems, ultimately saving time, cost, and headaches.
