Insider breaches likely occur because most security solutions aren't equipped to defend a porous and scattered network.

Cybercriminals are acutely aware of all the biases described above, so it becomes much more important to study how users interact with the network and design security strategies around it.

Most of us don't worry about security issues, even when we should.

A security approach that focuses on how users behave and makes use of multiple layers of security will do most of the heavy lifting when it comes to protecting the organization against our dangerous habits.

Educating employees on how significant their individual impact on network security is can have immense ROI, even thoug a behavioral economist will say that awareness of biases doesn't mean they'll disappear.

Thankfully, the security industry knows that this is happening and can help companies create a change in the security behavior of its flock.
