Layer 8 – The Human Factor

No matter how much money a company invests in security controls, humans will always defeat them.

A common first entry point of an attacker to an organization is usually a human (employee), who can easily be compromised by malicious software, social engineering techniques, or simply by human error.

 

Compromised employees allow attackers to bypass significant portions of companies’ defensive controls, and these humans cannot be “patched”.

 

Thus, the human attack surface can only be mitigated by compensating controls.
