Security awareness is becoming a hot potato for most of us in the cybersecurity sector, within our organizations, local and global communities. I have spent considerable time studying and working on this technical area as part of my duties while securing and championing best practices and behavioral change within various organizations.
While this is not to claim that I am a distinguished industry expert in communication strategies, training like CISSP and my experience have led to success in my career. I believe these lessons can be beneficial to others and may be a source to benchmark or gather knowledge/best practices with the primary objective of provoking critical thinking in this domain.
