Abstract: All the talk about security awareness training the past year has boosted the idea that training is futile and a waste of time. What are the mechanisms that drive security? Can we point to areas in psychology that relates to how we treat security? Are we, the infosec community, the best resource to teach security? This talk will boggle your mind, and possibly turn everything you know and believe about users, security and awareness upside down
