The Science of Building Habits
Nir Eyal - Author, Speaker, Investor
Alan LeFort - SVP and GM Security Awareness Training Products Group, Proofpoint
A crucial part of any cyber security strategy must be to focus on the human aspect - on developing security awareness, behavior, and culture within the organization. At its heart, security culture is the collection of beliefs and habits shared by an organization’s employees. So how do we create shared, healthy, lasting habits? Nir Eyal – award-winning author and entrepreneur– will share insights from his Book “Hooked: How to build habit-forming products”. In this fireside chat we will explore the importance of behavioral psychology in designing programs that lead to real cultural change, one habit at a time.
