'Building the Human Firewall: How to turn your workforce into a security asset'

There is no doubt that SaaS and cloud platforms enable collaboration and business productivity, but the adoption of these tools also increases the attack surface and makes it more difficult to keep sensitive data secure. Add the increasing business use of generative AI – say, the staffer on a tight deadline who lobs a load of commercially sensitive information into Chat GPT to help them write a report – and the challenges for security teams intensify.

How can businesses obtain all the productivity benefits these tools offer without exposing themselves to the risks? How can they turn security into an enabler for productivity rather than an obstacle that prevents staff carrying out their tasks smoothly and efficiently?

This might look like a technology challenge, but at the heart of this productivity paradox are people. By putting security tools into the hands of every member of the workforce, you can turn employees into security assets – and if you can make this as seamless as their SaaS use or Slack sharing, the business will benefit. This new human firewall might just be your best line of defence.

Join a group of your fellow security leaders at our next RANT Takeover, and our hosts from Metomic, to discuss how you can lock down your data, not your employees.
