Master insider threats, security awareness, ISO 27001, NIST CSF, GDPR & behavioral psychology to reduce human risk
What you'll learn
⚡ Build a Human Risk Management program using GRC frameworks mapped to ISO 27001, NIST CSF, SOC 2, GDPR, PCI-DSS, and HIPAA
⚡ Design and measure security awareness programs using behavioral psychology — reducing click rates, not just ticking compliance boxes
⚡ Implement an insider threat program with UEBA behavioral indicators, legal guardrails, and forensic evidence preservation protocols
⚡ Run phishing simulations, analyze results, and use failure data to drive targeted training decisions for high-risk employee segments
⚡ Respond to human-caused incidents — phishing compromise, insider theft, BEC wire fraud — using specialized IR playbooks
⚡ Calculate Human Risk Scores and build executive dashboards showing risk reduction in monetary terms for board-level reporting
⚡ Write security policies employees actually read and follow using plain language, visual hierarchy, and behavioral design principles
⚡ Apply breach notification rules correctly — GDPR 72-hour clock, HIPAA 60-day rule — and manage regulatory obligations post-incident
Requirements
❗ No GRC, compliance, or security awareness experience required — the course builds everything from the ground up
❗ Basic familiarity with cybersecurity concepts (what a breach is, what phishing means) is helpful but not essential
❗ No technical background needed — this course is equally relevant for security managers, HR, legal, compliance, and IT professionals
❗ An open mind toward behavioral science — this course explains the human side of security, not just tools and frameworks
Description
Are you ready to tackle the #1 cause of security breaches — human behavior?
82% of all data breaches involve a human element. Phishing, insider threats, social engineering, accidental data exposure — no firewall stops them. The only defense is a structured, measurable Human Risk Management program built on behavioral science, GRC frameworks, and compliance controls.
This course gives you the complete system — from the psychology of why employees make security mistakes to building an ISO 27001-aligned GRC framework, running phishing simulations, detecting insider threats, and measuring risk reduction with executive-ready dashboards.

What Makes Human Risk Different?
Technical controls assume threats come from outside. Human risk lives inside — in the employee who clicks a phishing link, the contractor who exfiltrates data, the manager who approves a fraudulent wire transfer. Traditional security programs treat this as a training problem. This course shows you it is a systems problem — and gives you the systems to solve it.

What You Will Learn
✅ Understand the psychology of security behavior — cognitive biases, dual-process thinking, habit loops, and security fatigue that make employees vulnerable
✅ Build a GRC framework (Governance, Risk & Compliance) that specifically addresses human risk alongside technical controls
✅ Map human risk controls to ISO 27001, NIST CSF, SOC 2, GDPR, PCI-DSS, and HIPAA
Requirements
✅ Design and measure a security awareness program that changes real behavior — not just checkbox compliance
✅ Implement an insider threat program with behavioral indicators, UEBA tools, and legal guardrails
✅ Run targeted phishing simulations and use failure data to drive training decisions
✅ Build a security culture through champions programs, leadership engagement, and communication strategies
✅ Define KPIs, dashboards, and executive reports that demonstrate risk reduction in monetary terms
✅ Develop security policies that employees actually read, understand, and follow
✅ Respond to human-caused incidents — phishing compromise, insider data theft, BEC, data mishandling — with targeted IR playbooks
✅ Understand breach notification obligations — GDPR 72-hour clock, HIPAA 60-day rule, US state law variations
✅ Conduct root cause analysis on human-caused incidents that produces systemic improvements, not just blame

Practical Tools and Templates
✅ Security awareness program design framework — needs assessment, content mapping, delivery channels, measurement
✅ Phishing simulation metrics — click rate, report rate, repeat offender tracking, simulation-to-training pipeline
✅ Insider threat behavioral indicators checklist — technical and behavioral signals, UEBA alert thresholds
✅ Human Risk Score formula — aggregate behavioral, training, and incident data into a per-employee risk score
✅ Policy writing template — plain language, visual hierarchy, acknowledgement tracking
✅ IR playbook templates — for phishing compromise, insider theft, BEC wire fraud, data mishandling
✅ Executive dashboard KPIs — Mean Time to Detect, training completion rates, click rate trends, incident reduction %
