ESW #286 - Ragnar Sigurdsson, Roey Yaacovi

The new category of Data Security Posture Management, what is it and why it's important. Discussing real customer stories where DSPM products played a critical role in helping companies secure their data.

Since the dawn of the internet, companies have been fighting cyber vulnerabilities with a myriad of traditional technologies. And assigning cybersecurity training to people without really knowing its effectiveness or being able to tell the difference between knowledge and behavior. This is why AwareGO created the Human Risk Assessment. Designed by behavioral and cybersecurity experts, it allows organizations to measure human risk and resilience across a number of critical cybersecurity threat vectors. It measures cyber risks connected to social media that are not only personal but can affect the workplace as well. It helps assess awareness of secure password handling with multiple interactive experiences and situations. And it allows you to discover how employees would deal with tricky situations around the workplace, such as tailgating and shouldersurfing …. and issues related to remote work. All in a safe and friendly environment. After completing the assessment employees get individualized results with an explanation of what they did right and what they could have done better. This offers guidance and a chance to learn. The overall results help organizations gather actionable insights and make informed decisions about their security strategy. The Human Risk Assessment works as a stand alone product but its flexibility allows integration into existing platforms. When combined with AwareGO’s live action training content it can bring your organization’s cyber resilience to the next level.
