Employees do not pay attention

I just read a few articles about employees not paying attention to corporate security in general, and specifically that they do not pay attention to things they are clicking on. Even when they know their own information is at risk as well as the company they work for, they do not seem to care.
The data in the articles suggests:
~ 45 % of clickers were not paying attention
~ 43 % said the emails they click on look legit
Very few employees say they are concerned with cyber security. So what do these findings suggest? Cyber Security Training, and Simulated Phishing have never been as important as it is now!
Having a plan in place to help teach and keep Cyber Security at the forefront of employees' minds will keep the company, and employee information, more cyber secure and reduce threats. When employees are aware of the current cyber security social engineering attacks, they can be better prepared.
Would love to show you this week's top ten emails that the cyber criminals are using to get users to fall for their scams.

4 年How about a "you click it, get a ticket" campaign. for each ticket, force them to watch (yet another) anti-phishing video. Collect enough tickets and it goes on your performance review. That means the potential to lose $$$ from bonuses, etc. Anytime you "waste" someone's time or hit their wallet, they start to take notice.
