How can we push employees / users to take cybersecurity to heart? Dr. Maria Bada, external behavioral scientist at AwareGO, has been working on the answer for years.

Her research focused on the human factor of cybersecurity, the assessment of cybersecurity awareness campaigns and their impact in changing online behavior and, gradually, it expanded from the user to the offender.

How can one make sure to address all of these and other stumbling blocks in the way of successful cybersecurity knowledge transfer?

When we look at the threats and how they become reality, that we can see and truly understand that cybersecurity is about people more than it is about technology.

During the COVID-19 pandemic we witnessed organizations having to quickly advance or coordinate their cybersecurity efforts as many employees started working from home.

All members of the digital community need to develop a cybersecurity mindset and create a cybersecurity culture where knowledge is being shared and communicated to all.
