For the last decade, messaging around cyber security has often followed a similar pattern: Make people fear the consequences of being hacked. We are only human, after all. We’re flawed, and we’re fallible. So are we the weakest link in the cyber security chain? Or is there a better way to look at it?


To answer that, we’re joined this week by HPE Cyber Security Awareness Training Program Manager, Joanne O’Connor.


This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organizations and what we can learn from it.
