This book offers a practice-oriented guide to developing an
effective cybersecurity culture in organizations. It provides a
psychosocial perspective on common cyberthreats affecting
organizations, and presents practical solutions for leveraging
employees’ attitudes and behaviours in order to improve security.
Cybersecurity, as well as the solutions used to achieve it, has
largely been associated with technologies. In contrast, this
book argues that cybersecurity begins with improving the
connections between people and digital technologies. By presenting a
comprehensive analysis of the current cybersecurity landscape, the
author discusses, based on literature and her personal experience,
human weaknesses in relation to security and the advantages
of pursuing a holistic approach to cybersecurity, and suggests how
to develop cybersecurity culture in practice. Organizations
canimprove their cyber resilience by adequately training their
staff. Accordingly, the book also describes a set of training
methods and tools. Further, ongoing education programmes and effective
communication within organizations are considered, showing that they
can become key drivers for successful cybersecurity awareness
initiatives. When properly trained and actively involved, human beings
can become the true first line of defence for every
organization.
