The NMTC Cybersecurity Peer Group Presents: 

The Psychology of Cybersecurity

Humans: The Strongest Link or the Weakest Link

As emerging technologies like AI and quantum computing continue disrupting the digital frontier, how can we bridge cybersecurity with psychology to build a more conscious yet resilient ecosystem?
 

Join Michael Davis, CEO of Merek Security Solutions,  to explore the mind-machine dilemma. In this insightful session, Michael will examine:

• How human vulnerabilities and biases lead to exploitable security oversights
• Emerging attack vectors leveraging psychology, like social engineering
• AI’s potential to predict behavior at unimaginable fidelity and scale
• Uplifting collective consciousness on technology's impact
• Fostering intuitive cyber mindfulness even as the pace of change accelerates

Imagine a future where our mental models keep pace with exponential progress, where integrated safeguards accompany radical connectivity, and where compassionate digital citizens consciously shepherd emerging intelligence advances. Michael believes this ideal awaits through bridging cybersecurity with psychology - uplifting our collective understanding while creating sociotechnical systems incentivizing our better data angels.

Mark your calendars for a mind-expanding discussion on the human element in cyber defense and building an ecosystem well-attuned between security and sentiment.
