10 Reasons Your Security Education Program Sucks
by Kris French
Cynicism at the intentions and questionable competency of our users is rampant in information security. We all know that a defense system is only as strong as its weakest point. This point is too often our people. It’s not right to blame them for this. Security is our job, and if we recognize a weak point and don’t protect it, we’re not doing our jobs. In this talk, I’ll walk you through the part of your job you’re ignoring, and how to do it better.

He is also founder of local information security group CleveSec which aims to bring security awareness outside of the echo chamber while still helping to sharpen the skills of those in the know.
