In today’s episode, Sean Martin is joined by co-host Selena Templeton and they have the pleasure of speaking with Chad Loder and Jason Hoenich from Habitu8. Today’s chat is all about insanity in the world of cybersecurity: in many areas of the industry, we keep trying to do the same thing over and over in the hopes of getting a different result.

One such example comes with user awareness training. It’s insane to expect the users to understand security and remember all the ever-changing rules. We attempt to train them on the rules, but then we tend to cram too much in to the time we allocate for the training. Their brains just can't absorb what we throw at them, so is it any wonder that they get overwhelmed and stop trying?

Chad and Jason talk us through this and a number of other things that are making all of us – the practitioners, defenders, and users – tired. And even a bit insane.
