Why do people make poor decisions about security?
Why do good security programs still fail?
Why does no one care until it's too late?
In Who Cares? An Executive's Guide to Considering the Security Human Factor, seasoned Security and Resilience Leader Paul Wood explores the uncomfortable truth that most breaches aren't caused by a lack of tools or tech. They're caused by people. And curiously so, the human element is still the most overlooked, misunderstood, and underfunded part of most security strategies.
This book is a wake-up call for executives, CISOs, and managers who are tired of throwing money at software while ignoring the organisational and psychological realities that drive risk. Dr. Wood draws on his real-world experiences and years inside high-stakes environments and gives you nuggets of wisdom on how culture, communication, and leadership shape the effectiveness of security programs.
Who Cares? An Executive's Guide to Considering the Security Human Factor shows that caring isn't just nice. It's necessary.
