Human Factors in Cybersecurity: Building security cultures that put people at the center (English Edition) - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

Cybersecurity breaches overwhelmingly succeed because of human behavior, not technical failure. With 95% of incidents traced to human factors, organizations urgently need approaches that go beyond technology to build genuine security cultures rooted in psychology, trust, and behavioral science.

This book covers cognitive biases that make phishing effective, the true cost of human error, spaced learning and awareness program design, human-centered incident response under pressure, Zero Trust identity and access management, behavioral analytics and insider threat detection, adaptive security culture across multi-cloud environments, measuring cultural change with dual metrics, building resilient security teams, and personality and demographic risk profiling.

By the end of this book, security leaders, awareness professionals, and CISOs will be equipped to design, measure and sustain security cultures that treat people as the strongest link in their security chain, not the weakest.
