Identifying & Tracking Risks
using data to increase security

Traditional security measures struggle to quantify human risk in real-time, leaving organizations blind to potential breaches. Disparate tools, ineffective training, and a lack of communication make it difficult to track the right actions and report risk to the board in a meaningful way. This session, designed for cybersecurity professionals who want to identify and track risks effectively will explore the human element in cybersecurity, highlighting the critical risks associated with areas like identity threats, phishing, and data loss.

Human element breaches remain perfunctory, with one touted silver bullet: security awareness and training (SA&T). This is a market that has grown exponentially and yet, with all this training and quizzing, human-related breaches continue to increase year over year. Join us for this session to examine the major expected changes in SA&T as the industry transitions to an approach that centers on behavior: human risk management. This new approach prioritizes positively influencing behavior and instilling a security culture within organizations. The session will provide attendees with Forrester’s definition of human risk management and answer questions like: What are the drivers and challenges of security awareness and training? How is the human risk management market maturing? What are the challenges, opportunities, and practicalities of moving from SA&T to human risk management?
