People don’t know how they may be vulnerable. Employees and execs have confidence that “I’m good”.

Here are four reasons we need to challenge their beliefs in a positive way, without causing backlash or embarrassment that hurt culture:
.
1. They think the organization is not a target
2. They think they are not a target
3. They think they know what the worst attacks look like
4. They think the technology will stop dangerous attacks
.
Before you can educate all employees on good cyber hygiene, you need to get them to recognize what they NEED to learn.
.
This is the kind of topic we discuss in the Live Cyber Security Awareness Forum panel sessions.
