    Human Enablement: The Language Reshaping Security Culture | David Shipley

    Calling employees a "human risk" is costing your security program before training even starts.   David Shipley, CEO of Beauceron Security, makes the case for reframing the whole category on the Digital Trust podcast. "Human Risk Management" signals to employees they're liabilities, not assets — it's demotivating by designThe goal is helping people make good choices with technology, not minimising the humanNew employees are higher risk than any specific role; target behaviour, not job titleSecurity Awareness data shows over-training suppresses reporting ratesThe answer is frequency, not volume Hosted on Acast.
