Human Factors in Security: Building a Security-Aware Culture

The human element remains the most critical, yet often weakest, link in the security chain. This course moves beyond simplistic, mandatory annual training to focus on the psychology, communication, and management techniques required to fundamentally change user behavior and build a true security-aware culture. Participants will learn how to design, implement, and measure the effectiveness of engaging, continuous security awareness and training (SAT) programs. The goal is to transform employees from passive liabilities into active, proactive defenders, thereby significantly reducing the risk from social engineering and internal errors.
