Safer Internet for Business — Reducing Human Error and Insider Risk
Post-webinar summary on reducing human error in cybersecurity. Covers phishing, social engineering, MFA, password hygiene, security culture and accidental insider risk.
What's inside
- Most UK SME breaches involve a human element
- Phishing extends beyond email — SMS, voice, social media, collaboration platforms
- MFA and password managers are the foundation
- Insider risk is mostly accidental, not malicious
- Culture beats technology — no-blame reporting reduces incident impact
This follow-up summary captures the key points from our Safer Internet Day 2026 webinar. The session focuses on the human element of cyber risk: phishing across multiple channels, social engineering patterns we see hitting UK SMEs, and the everyday hygiene measures that disproportionately reduce incident likelihood.
The deck includes a practical “how to start a no-blame reporting culture” section that has proved popular with HR-adjacent attendees.
