  • The 1% Problem: Insights and Implications from the 2024 Data Loss Landscape report

    The 1% Problem: Insights and Implications from the 2024 Data Loss Landscape report
    Apr 2 2024
    In the digital age, data loss prevention is a top concern in cybersecurity as organizations strive to safeguard sensitive information in the hands of careless, compromised and complicit users.

    Today’s episode of Protecting People dives into the inaugural Data Loss Landscape report. Our guests, Itir Clarke and Brian Gleeson shed light on the alarming statistics and insightful findings around data loss and people-based risk.

    One of the most surprising findings: a mere 1% of users were responsible for almost 90% of data loss alerts.

    The conversation also goes into exploring human-centric approaches to DLP, including:
    • How understanding user behaviors can influence policy and shape effective controls to mitigate data loss risks
    • The impact of departing employees on data security and the need for proactive strategies to prevent unauthorized data exfiltration
    • The importance of continually evaluating and adapting DLP strategies to address evolving threats
    Tune in to discover actionable strategies and best practices for safeguarding sensitive data in an increasingly complex threat landscape.Resources mentionedData Loss Landscape report:

  • Risky and They Know It: Unveiling Human Behavior in the State of the Phish Report 2024

    Risky and They Know It: Unveiling Human Behavior in the State of the Phish Report 2024
    Feb 27 2024
    Today’s episode revolves around the latest edition of our monumental research endeavor, the "State of the Phish" report. Joining host Brian Reed is a diverse panel of global experts: Jennifer Cheng from Singapore, Carl Leonard from the U.K., Marcelo Bezerra from Brazil, and Paul Chavez from the U.S.

    While we see new encounters with malware strains, vulnerabilities, and tactics yearly, the human element remains a constant. In an era of human-based risks, safeguarding people is as crucial as securing networks and infrastructure.

    Noteworthy insights include a decline in successful phishing attacks (from 88% to 75%) but an underlying concern as three-fourths of organizations still fall victim. A groundbreaking aspect of this report is its inclusion of user actions, revealing that 71% of users engage in risky behaviors—96% fully aware of the risks. The panel explores the cultural and organizational factors contributing to this phenomenon, touching on convenience, urgency and leadership buy-in.

    Other topics discussed include:
    • Regional perspectives & cultural influences
    • Global validation of user behavior insights
    Tune in for a riveting discussion that goes beyond statistics, unraveling the intricate web of human behavior in the face of cybersecurity challenges.
