Covered Security announced the Covered Kudo Sweepstakes, providing financial incentive for enterprise and home users of its Personal Assistant for Security to improve their security practices.

Investment in security education hasn't solved this, because of a mismatch of incentive and security expertise.

Covered changes this by combining the behavior science behind addictive consumer apps with security automation, giving users incentive to act and simple steps to take to reduce their risk.

Fortune 1000 companies use Covered to reduce the risk of security incident, by motivating and empowering employees and partners to adopt the habits of security professionals - leading to a 56% lower rate of online compromise.

Covered is now providing additional financial incentives for enterprise and home users in the US. "Hackers know that people are the weak link and target them at work and at home, to compromise them and any company they're associated with," said Chris Zannetos, co-founder and CEO of Covered Security.
