What if you could predict and ultimately prevent most incidents in your organization? 82% of all attacks originate from human fallibility, but an effective risk management approach is impossible without the ability to pinpoint our riskiest users. Research findings from a 300k-employee data set spanning 8 years reveal trends in our most vulnerable populations.
Masha shares how 8% of the workforce is responsible for the majority of incidents and dive into what makes workers high-risk, where those high-risk users spend their time, what are their riskiest behaviors, and what that might mean for your organization's security. From there, she explores how security professionals can effectively measure user risk in their own organizations and action on these findings to strengthen their cyber defense. By applying the different stages of user-risk management, from feedback to tailored safeguards & access, learn how to keep your workforce safe and business productive.
