"Humans don’t fail in isolation; they fail when systems fail them. They are not the weakest link, but the last one standing"
Human behaviour is complex and often irrational. This makes designing cybersecurity interventions challenging, as the risk is that well-intentioned measures may be perceived as pessimistic, condescending, or controlling, which helps no one. Cybersecurity can be more social by putting people first, since what is genuine wins.
