On demand
Naming and Shaming. Taking away IT assets. Forcing training if they clicked. Lots of companies are doing it, but should they?
We know that most unintentional insider threats are just that. Unintentional. They are due to human error and behaviour, but should you be punishing your staff? What is the impact on staff productivity and wellbeing?
In this virtual workshop, we will be discussing the findings from our Simulated Phishing and Employee Cyber security behaviour (SPEC) project funded by the Centre for Research and Evidence on Security Threats (CREST). You will hear about what this means for your organisational policies and our panel of industry experts will be chatting about their experiences of punishment and its impact on cyber security.
