Businesses who change risky employee behavior methodically and effectively through personalized, timely, and relevant learning will see an improvement to their overall security posture and a reduction in the number of security incidents.

It stands to reason that the training and coaching offered to employees needs to meet the same level of personalization in order to effectively combat these threats and change risky habits and behaviors over time.

Change employee behavior over time with real-time microlearning.

Providing clear guidance on how to identify and remediate sophisticated cyber threats - ideally in real time as employees engage with risky websites, applications, or links - is a critical component to augmenting risky behaviors and ultimately improving an organization's overall security posture.

With organizations making their company systems available through the internet to facilitate remote and hybrid work, the actions employees take at home still have the potential to leave their organizations vulnerable to cyberattacks.

Providing clear guidance in real-time as employees engage in risky behaviors will arm them with insights that are relevant to them, allowing them to better recognize how their actions can impact their organization's security posture and slowly change these habits for both their benefit and that of their organization.
