I am truly honored to join the Advisory Board of MindShield. This marks the beginning of an important journey—one focused on deciphering the underlying cognitive vulnerabilities that malicious cyber threats exploit. Our goal is to help individuals and organizations meaningfully strengthen their ability to recognize and resist manipulation attempts, reducing the risk of victimization.
Cyber threats manipulate behavior by exploiting our cognitive weaknesses, undermining cybersecurity through social engineering, digital extortion, impersonation, and fraud. While technical controls play a crucial role, they are not enough. Standard behavioral training often falls short, especially over time. To develop effective, efficient, and adaptable solutions, we must deeply understand and tap into these core human vulnerabilities.
The team at MindShield recognizes the pivotal role of human cognition in cybersecurity. By leveraging the strengths of human awareness, we strive to enhance the collective defense of individuals and organizations.
I look forward to working with brilliant people like Daniel Blanc and Sumona Banerji on fundamentally improving cognitive defenses!
