Episode Notes
Security awareness and security culture are talked about a lot in the community. In this episode, we get into the nitty gritty of both of these topics, hearing about them via real-world stories and discussing them in the context of real-life analogies. A program is just a program unless it can be understood, measured, and defended from all angles.
As one example discussed in this episode, there's no point in just teaching people to spot a phishing email because phishing now comes in text messages, on social media, direct messages on Twitter or Instagram, on Discord channels, even in your WhatsApp messages. There's no way you can train everyone on every single channel out there. A better option is to teach them about the red flags, give them knowledge about how the bad actors will approach their targets, and what some of the signs are to look out for. Help them understand that if you're careful, then you won't fall victim to it. One analogy used to help illustrate this point comes in the form of the crosswalks in London where information is shared with the street crosser at the point when/where they are crossing as opposed to trying to train the traveler weeks in advance of visiting London.
This is one of the many, many points that our guest, Javvad Malik, shares with us during this episode.
Enjoy and learn!
