This is really fascinating. While I use several different AI’s, Chat GPT is not my go to except when I’m using it in other services like Copilot or in Perplexity Computer (for orchestrating tasks) or talking to it using CarPlay while I’m in the car. What’s your chosen AI tool and why?

One of the standout findings from our Behavioural Impact Report showed that 'just 3% of users are responsible for 18% of all AI-related events'... That’s a lot of heavy lifting from a very small group! 🏋️ Most organisations are trying to manage AI through policy, approved tools, and acceptable use guidelines, which isn't a bad approach on the surface. The challenge is that these frameworks are usually designed around the average user. This 3% isn’t average… They move faster, experiment more, make decisions in the moment and often push tools further than anyone expected. There can be a haste to label this behaviour as reckless or nefarious, but that’s rarely the case. Most employees turn up to work and try to get the best job done in the most efficient way; they aren't trying to mastermind Watergate. In many instances, these users are the trailblazers showing us where behaviour is heading next. So this "problematic" 3% may not be a problem at all, but a signal to pay closer attention 👀 📚 FULL REPORT: https://hubs.la/Q04jkVXR0 🎨 Design Credits: Lisa Raynaud

Yesterday’s SASIG Events brought together three of the biggest, interconnected terms in the cyber security industry: Compliance, Risk and Governance. Naturally, we sent along three big, interconnected names of our own in the form of Tim Ward, Phil Guest and Laura Katharina Oertel. The venue was packed with sharp minds, strong coffee and enough conversations about governance frameworks to make even the Wi-Fi feel compliant! Our CEO, Tim Ward, took to the stage to talk about quantifying change in cyber security behaviour and why human factors matter far more than most organisations realise. The room warmed up pretty quickly too. Now, yes, the UK is currently enduring a heatwave, but we’re choosing to believe that was entirely down to Tim’s passionate talk 🔥 Tim explored how motivation, ability and prompts all play a huge role in cyber defence, sharing practical examples along with findings from our latest report to show how behaviour change can be achieved and the real impact it can have. 📚 FULL REPORT: https://hubs.la/Q04gW4st0 Huge thanks to SASIG for hosting such a fantastic event and creating space for these important conversations. And of course, a big thank you to all the other speakers and contributors on the day for sharing their insights and expertise.

We’ve been receiving complaints from customers saying that they’re bored because their teams aren’t engaging with phishing emails and are actually taking time to inspect links before clicking them. This means fewer incidents for their security teams to write emails about and budget carrying over into the next financial year because they haven’t lost as much of it to breaches as they’d forecasted. It’s sorry state of affairs and we’re responsible for it. Book a demo if your day job as a cyber security professional has become a bit too exciting and you’re looking for a touch more of the mundane. We can help with that 😴 https://hubs.la/Q04gWtG50

In our latest Behavioural Impact Report, we explored which AI websites rank highest for workplace usage and how those patterns are shifting inside organisations. Despite the eye rolls and growing criticism, OpenAI’s ChatGPT still sits comfortably at the top as the most visited AI website. Meanwhile, platforms like Google Gemini, Anthropic Claude and DeepSeek are still playing catch-up. Our experts looked at the AI usage metrics tracked by Redflags. customers to see where governance was having an impact on digital behaviours. In some organisations, usage patterns fell in line with clear rules around which AI tools employees are permitted to access. In others, employees were actively searching for workarounds as a result of mounting pressures (e.g., increased workload, fear of being replaced, etc). If you’re a cyber security professional who feels like you're playing a game of whack-a-mole - every time one AI site is blocked, another immediately appears in its place - and want to shape safer behaviours and not just secret ones, this report is for you. 📚 FULL REPORT: https://hubs.la/Q04gW4st0 🗣️ Contributors: Tim Ward, 🐡 Lucy Finlay CISM, George Ponder, Melanie Knight, Phoebe P. and Noah Browne. 🎨 Design Credits: Lisa Raynaud
