Cyber threats in 2025 are smarter and faster. Are your teams prepared? Download our guide to activate behavior change with five key defense strategies.  

Imagine this: You're rushing through emails during a hectic workday and click on an attachment from a colleague – or so it seems. Moments later, you realize it was a phishing attempt. The malware you've just downloaded compromises your entire network.  

In May 2024, a single employee's mistake triggered a nationwide cyberattack on a major U.S. hospital system. Investigators traced the breach back to a malicious file that had been accidentally downloaded – a simple error with massive consequences.  

The attack shut down access to electronic health records and other critical systems. Patients had to bring handwritten notes to appointments. Pharmacies couldn't fill prescriptions. Across the system, chaos reigned. And this wasn't an isolated incident. Under pressure, attention slips – and attackers are ready to exploit those cracks.  

Protecting an organization from cyber threats isn't just about policies or firewalls – it's about people. Yet most cybersecurity training stops at information delivery, with little lasting impact on behavior. What's missing is activation: the strategies that turn awareness into action. When employees are engaged through active, behavior-focused methods, they become adaptable, alert, and ready to respond when it matters most.          

Our guide takes a closer look at five of the biggest cybersecurity vulnerabilities facing organizations today – and offers practical ways to activate behavior change that reduces risk. It's a useful next step if you're looking to build stronger human defenses in your organization.
