Miami University's (in Oxford, Ohio) Farmer School of Business Information Systems and Security researcher Joseph Nwankpa joins Cyber Work today. Nwankpa recently wrote a report that overturns some huge assumptions: he found that work-from-home employees are, to a large degree, less of a security issue than many on-premises workers. Nwankpa discusses The Peltzman Effect, the persistent struggles to create security awareness that lasts past the initial training sessions and talks about some surprising reasons that the higher education sector has been shown to be less sophisticated in their security awareness than many other industries. 0:00 - Are remote workers more cyber secure? 2:00 - How did Joseph Nwankpa get into cybersecurity? 7:53 - Findings on remote worker security 12:00 - Cybersecurity strategies in different work locations 17:05 - A company's cybersecurity compliance culture 19:07 - Best lessons for best remote work security practices 22:00 - Internalizing securing awareness 26:40 - Higher ed issues with cybersecurity 31:00 - Higher ed and phishing emails 33:00 - Remote work security blind spots 35:50 - Become a security awareness professional 41:54 - Miami University's information systems program 44:00 - Learn more about Nwankpa 45:01 - Outro – Get your FREE cybersecurity training resources: https://www.infosecinstitute.com/free – View Cyber Work Podcast transcripts and additional episodes: https://www.infosecinstitute.com/podcast About Infosec Infosec’s mission is to put people at the center of cybersecurity.
