Description
Key Strategies to Safeguard Your Future
Well Aware offers a timely take on the leadership issues that businesses face when it comes to the threat of hacking. Finney argues that cybersecurity is not a technology problem; it's a people problem. Cybersecurity should be understood as a series of nine habits that should be mastered--literacy, skepticism, vigilance, secrecy, culture, diligence, community, mirroring, and deception--drawn from knowledge the author has acquired during two decades of experience in cybersecurity. By implementing these habits and changing our behaviors, we can combat most security problems.
This book examines our security challenges using lessons learned from psychology, neuroscience, history, and economics. Business leaders will learn to harness effective cybersecurity techniques in their businesses as well as their everyday lives.
