Noteworthy insights include a decline in successful phishing attacks (from 88% to 75%) but an underlying concern as three-fourths of organizations still fall victim. A groundbreaking aspect of this report is its inclusion of user actions, revealing that 71% of users engage in risky behaviors—96% fully aware of the risks. The panel explores the cultural and organizational factors contributing to this phenomenon, touching on convenience, urgency and leadership buy-in. Other topics discussed include: Regional perspectives & cultural influencesGlobal validation of user behavior insightsTune in for a riveting discussion that goes beyond statistics, unraveling the intricate web of human behavior in the face of cybersecurity challenges.
