Digital risks often stem from human actions, making human risk management essential for reducing threats from insiders and third parties, and to employees. The rise of remote work, social media, deepfakes, and the dark web has made these risks more complex, potentially causing reputational harm, financial losses, regulatory penalties, or even physical danger. Addressing these threats requires understanding the individuals behind them, a process that demands specialized expertise and advanced technology. Ultimately, it takes a human-focused approach to solve human-driven risks. Learn more: https://lnkd.in/e2G3vvCn #SecurityAwareness #HumanRisk #DigitalRisk #ManagedIntel
