New York's Cybersecurity Law: A Deep Dive into Its Strengths and Shortcomings

New York's financial sector is now governed by the Second Amendment to 23 NYCRR 500, a set of cybersecurity regulations. While the amendment introduces robust technical and procedural requirements, it notably overlooks the human element of cybersecurity. Behavioral science principles, such as cognitive load theory and spaced learning, emphasize the need for digestible, continuous training. Over 90% of breaches start with human error, yet regulations like this one sideline the human element. For cybersecurity measures to be truly effective, continuous security awareness training must be prioritized, ensuring that every individual is empowered with the knowledge and skills to combat cyber threats.

The Shocking Truth About Phishing: Why Good Employees Keep Falling for Scams

This blog post explores the concept of learned helplessness in phishing susceptibility, using the story of Mike, a diligent accountant, to illustrate how repetitive, unfair phishing training without feedback can lead even cautious employees to feel powerless and give up.
