Human error: biggest cybersecurity threat we face

Human error as the biggest cyber threat, featuring expert insights for safer digital navigation.

Despite technological advancements, human error remains the leading cause of data breaches. Weak passwords, phishing scams, and poor security habits leave organisations vulnerable to cyber threats.

In this episode, cyber security expert Jacqueline Jayne highlights how hackers exploit common mistakes, taking advantage of misplaced trust and a lack of vigilance. Many breaches occur simply because individuals underestimate risks or fail to follow basic security practices.

To combat this, organisations must prioritise continuous, real-world cybersecurity training. Building a culture of awareness and responsibility is key to reducing human error and strengthening defences.

Cybersecurity isn’t just a technical issue—it’s a human one.
