Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ueWCTHV96eQ&t=2s and pay attention to what the biggest risk of cyber threats are. After watching the video, post an entry describing what you think about the “human firewall”.
The video emphasized that the biggest risk in cybersecurity is human error as people who aren’t trained well will click phishing links, reuse the same password, and trust wrong sources. That is why the concept of human firewall is important. It means by training and empowering people to be the line of defense in their company without fail to defend against the cyber threats. A strong human firewall would look like people who are aware, vigilant, and responsible. While we have most technology to block out all the attack the chances of it being an insider job by accident is still high if no one is trained right. Humans are born to make mistakes so one untrained employee can cost a huge amount to a company.
