Cat Massage and Security Awareness

April 12, 2011

A friend posted an awesome video on Youtube today.

Unfortunately, it reminded me of far too many of the security awareness videos I’ve seen in the past few years – entirely focused on the message and without any real thought about the presentation.   The goal of your security awareness campaign isn’t to end up on Everything Is Terrible.  It’s to change the behavior of your users.

Let me ask you… did that video make you want to run out and massage your cat?  Or let that lady within 100 yards of your cat?

I’d encourage you to ask the same question about your users and security awareness… do the videos you’re showing your users actually make them want to DO something?  If not, you’re wasting time, money and effort….
