Review the following photos through a human-centered cybersecurity framework. Create a meme for your favorite three, explaining what is going on in the individual’s or individuals’ mind(s).
Employee security training for everyone who fell for the fake phishing campaign.
“I knew I shouldn’t have clicked that link.”
“This should be enough security!”
“I thought I needed to do all of this extremely technical hacking, but an employee just sent their credentials to me in plaintext through email.”
I think my “memes” ironically highlight several aspects that human-centered cybersecurity. Training gaps in a workforce, misconceptions about security and over-reliance on security tools, and social engineering risks. These all play a critical role in cybersecurity, and are all human factors. Human-centered cybersecurity addresses these issues with systems that account for real-world human behavior.
