 A Forcepoint commissioned Frost & Sullivan survey found that while 95% of Asia Pacific firms have embarked on digital transformation projects, most of those projects (65%) were delayed or disrupted due to rising cyber-attacks. These attacks are succeeding because while regulations, technology, skilled cyber-security manpower and user education all contribute to thwarting cyber-attacks, these things are based on one fundamental – understanding the psyches, motivations and behaviors of cyber criminals. Enterprises today just don’t understand and take into account human behavior well enough. It’s also important that corporate security teams – the good guys –  be aware of their own behavior. Alvin Rodrigues, Senior Director, Security Strategist, Asia-Pacific at Forcepoint joins us to tell us how APAC enterprises can better understand human behavior to create more robust security strategies.
