Culture's Impact on Cyber Risk

The Rundown

In this Cybersecurity Awareness Month special, Catalyit Consultant Ryan Smith unpacks how company culture can quietly amplify cyber risk and what leaders can do to change that.

The Context

• Culture often gets overlooked in cyber risk discussions, but it’s a powerful vulnerability (or defense).
• Ryan spotlights how misalignments between leadership, IT, and staff often create weak links.
• He breaks down common misconceptions and resistance that keep organizations from strengthening their defenses.
• Attendees will walk away with practical strategies to build a more cyber-aware culture and improve threat response.

Why it Matters

Most breaches don’t come from high-tech hacks — they stem from human error, poor habits, or ignored warnings. Building a cyber-conscious culture isn't just an IT task, but it’s leadership's responsibility as well. This session gives you the playbook to tighten your weakest link: people.

Watch now to learn how shifting your culture could be the smartest cybersecurity move you make all year.
