Cybersecurity issues, problems and incidents don’t always relate to technological faults. Many can be avoided or mitigated through improved cybersecurity awareness, behaviour and culture change (ABCs). This book guides organisations looking to create an enhanced security culture through improved understanding and practice of cybersecurity at an individual level. Key awareness, behaviour and culture concepts are covered from the ground up, alongside practical tips and examples.

'Provides a fresh and innovative approach to designing and implementing your cybersecurity awareness program. Unlike the majority of books on the subject, the language is easy to digest and the techniques human-focused. I would recommend this book to anyone involved in information security looking to engage the wider organisation and improve cybersecurity awareness.'
