Watch On-Demand
Recorded live on May 29, 2024
The threat landscape moves fast. Social engineering techniques such as QR code phishing, generative AI deep fakes, and Business Email Compromise (BEC) are constantly evolving.
According to the 2024 State of the Phish Report, most security teams say they use real-world threat intelligence to shape their security awareness program. However, using it effectively across the organization is a big challenge. As new lures and trends appear, it’s essential to consistently ensure your employees are resilient against the nature, scope and impact of the cybersecurity threats they face.
Join us for a 60-minute live panel discussion with guest panelists as they tell stories and explain best practices about using threat intelligence to fortify their program and people such as:
- How to engage people with training that is creative, impactful—and ready to shift as needed
- The importance of real-world behavior metrics for analyzing and acting upon insights
- The power of cross-functional collaboration (such as with SOC) to be agile and focused
- Tips to mature your security culture by approaching end users as “friends not foes”
