There is a growing importance of cultivating a strong culture of cybersecurity awareness within organizations, especially as cyber threats continue to evolve. With AI-enhanced attacks, increasing business email compromise scams, and persistent ransomware risks, the message is clear: technology alone cannot defend against these threats. Every individual connected to an organization—employees, partners, vendors, and stakeholders—must be engaged as part of a “human firewall” to help detect and prevent attacks.

RubinBrown’s Cyber Security Services team encourages organizations to proactively strengthen this human layer of defense. Their recommendations include fostering a security-conscious culture where all employees feel responsible for reporting suspicious activity, and implementing consistent, ongoing security awareness training. Key training points include recognizing phishing attempts, verifying unexpected communications, watching for manipulation tactics, and reporting questionable messages promptly to IT. By empowering people with knowledge and vigilance, organizations can significantly enhance their overall cybersecurity posture.
