CBT

Human-Centric Security Leadership

This CBT is designed to tear down the illusion that security is solely an IT issue and empowers every employee to act as a security leader, regardless of their job title. A strong security culture is built through human behavior and is formed in everyday spaces like breakrooms and Slack channels, not just in server rooms. You must master everyday ethics, proactive reporting, and psychological safety to protect your team and ensure the organization remains unbreakable.

What You Will Learn

  • Report "Near Misses" to provide the Security Operations Center with critical early warning data to defend the rest of the company.
