From Shame to Fame: Changing Behaviors and RSAC Interviews from Tanium and Illumio - Andrew Rubin, Craig Taylor, Tim Morris - BSW #444
About this episode
The episode discusses the need to shift security awareness training from shame and punishment to gamification and positive reinforcement.
Why have security awareness training programs failed? Maybe we need to understand human psychology. Humans don't like tricks, or to be shamed, or negative emotions. Humans want to be rewarded, but yet our training and phishing programs are not built for reward. Maybe it's time to rethink cyber literacy. Craig Taylor, CEO and Co-founder at CyberHoot, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why we need to shift our Cyber Literacy industry from shame and punishment towards gamification, positive reinforcement, and small rewards. If we truly aspire to change behaviors, then we need a different approach. Craig will discuss how a multi-disciplinary approach rooted in science is the future of training and phishing programs.
