How I Pulled Off an Edgy Security Campaign – SANS Security Awareness Summit 2018

Description: SANS Summit schedule: http://www.sans.org/u/DuS You know you need to create attention-getting security awareness campaigns, but how do you keep from getting the wrong kind of attention from HR or Corporate Communications? How do you get executive support for doing something that’s a little outside the box? Security awareness goals are quite different from corporate communications goals, and you need to be able to clearly articulate how it’s different, and how the tactics need to be, too. Lisa led a disruptive campaign that had employee engagement measures 300% higher than other corporate comms campaigns. During the campaign period, phishing click rates were cut in half, and phish report rates went up 250%. But the campaign was not without its risks. The most innovative, ambitious campaigns all have an element of risk. Say the word “risk” to a security professional, and it generally evokes the negative. But in the creative world of marketing and advertising, the real risk is not taking any risk at all.
