Security Awareness Training Sucks! Focus on Situational Awareness.
Manage episode 480122268 series 3527833
In this eye-opening episode of Unspoken Security, host AJ Nash welcomes notorious hacker and security expert Jayson E. Street to discuss why traditional security awareness training falls short. Jayson explains that most corporate security training is merely policy-driven compliance, not actual security education.
Instead of focusing on checkbox exercises once a year, Jayson advocates for building situational awareness—a security mindset that extends beyond the workplace into everyday life. He shares practical strategies for gamifying security training, fostering a culture where employees feel like participants rather than targets, and creating year-round engagement through creative competitions.
Through entertaining stories and candid insights from his experience as a simulated adversary for hire, Jayson challenges the industry's approach to security training and offers a refreshing perspective on how to make organizations genuinely more secure.
