Xandra Uth of SoSafe examines how motivation and ability drive behavior change, proving data importance through targeted phishing simulations and compelling narratives.
Security awareness programs often focus on educating employees about threats, yet 93% of people who breach company policies know they're creating risk - they simply do it anyway. The gap between awareness and behavior represents a critical vulnerability that traditional annual compliance training fails to address.
Understanding BJ Fogg's behavior model - that behavior equals motivation multiplied by ability - reveals why knowledge alone doesn't change actions.
In this session, Xandra Uth of SoSafe will share insights on:
- How motivation and ability drive behavior change;
- How to prove data importance and vulnerability through targeted phishing simulations and compelling narratives;
- Why spreading training consistently throughout the year creates lasting behavioral change rather than forgotten annual compliance.
