Transformational Security Awareness

What Neuroscientists, Storytellers, and Marketers Can Teach Us About Driving Secure Behaviors

By: Perry Carpenter, Kevin Mitnick - foreword

Narrated by: Stephen Bel Davies

Expert guidance on the art and science of driving secure behaviors.

Transformational Security Awareness empowers security leaders with the information and resources they need to assemble and deliver effective world-class security awareness training programs that drive secure behaviors and culture change.

When all other processes, controls, and technologies fail, humans are your last line of defense. But, how can you prepare them? Frustrated with ineffective training paradigms, most security leaders know that there must be a better way. A way that engages users, shapes behaviors, and fosters an organizational culture that encourages and reinforces security-related values. The good news is that there is hope. That's what Transformational Security Awareness is all about.

Author Perry Carpenter weaves together insights and best practices from experts in communication, persuasion, psychology, behavioral economics, organizational culture management, employee engagement, and storytelling to create a multidisciplinary masterpiece that transcends traditional security education and sets you on the path to make a lasting impact in your organization.

Great content, unforgivable presentation

Let’s get this out of the way; the content is 100% A++ top notch.

However, some idiot decided to have the narrator speak EVERY URL in the book (and there are several hundred). So every few minutes, you’re interrupted and distracted by “W W W dot website dot com slash articles slash two thousand twenty one slash January slash fifteen slash information hyphen about hyphen a hyphen cyber hyphen incident hyphen at hyphen fictional hyphen healthcare hyphen company dot a s p x question mark equal sign capital a b capital c nine five tilde four six……”

The book could easily be 30% shorter without all of this.

Just buy the print.

Forward slash, hyphen, double-u double-u double-u

Never in my life have I heard an audiobook read out every single URL in the footers. Great content, but incredibly focus-breaking to have to skip over minutes of links I’m not in front of a computer to visit.

Fantastic recipe for Cyber Security success.

A very easy to understand guide to creating a Cyber Security culture within any organization.
Great narration, easy to understand and follow.

Good information between nonsense

Hearing the URLs of every(!) resource read out made this quite a chore to listen to. …and that’s not the only unnecessarily repetitive part…
