Notes from a toastmaster’s meeting

– Perhaps like me, you wish your relationships were better or different.
– If you wait for someone to change, you may wait forever.
– Self-sufficiency and realize that you are enough. Don’t need someone else to complete you. Once this sinks in, you’ll stop asking others to change for you.
– Need to change your mindset
– Was comfortable in blame zone but needed to shift thinking.
– Comfortable and practical relationship.

3 guideposts we can follow to deal with diff people.

– 1) Relinquish desire to change because they may not be capable of change. Our responsibility to accept their limitations
– 2) stop expecting acknowledgment or apology that they may be incapable of offering. They will let us down but we take accountability of our actions.
– 3) we must act ourselves to improve the relationship or accept as is. We do not need these relationships to be complete. It is enough to know we love them.
– Remember we can’t control people’s actions helps to get to non-judgment.
– Repeat out loud: if I wait for ___ to change, I may wait forever. It is not his/her responsibility to make me feel better. No matter how hard they try, I might still feel bad.
– Stop expecting an apology and accept the relationship as is. These guideposts help see the relationship with new eyes.

These are notes from a toastmaster meeting.

How many licks to get to the center of security awareness? 5 stages.
1) Human survey
2) Compliance based
3) growth/behavior change
4) Long term sustainment 5) metrics.
#1. The most important thing to do first is to get executives involved. If no visibility, you won’t be successful. They give you a budget and sign checks. Individuals identify attacks and avoid the breach as long as possible.
#2. Regulatory requirement. Every program regulated and compliance based. Gov’t making sure we do our jobs. IT Industry Standard, GDPR, Education, Financial, Government, Frameworks, Healthcare, Industrial controls.
#3 growth or behavior change. Build a culture of cybersecurity awareness. Know what phishing is, malware, worms. Etc. Weird things happening to the computer. IT will know signs of attacks. Cybersecurity should be part of the business. Will be more successful if integrated. We can’t know about the incident if people don’t report it.
#4 long term sustainment. Culture of cyber security awareness. Work with the executive team and find key people in an organization to help the program.
#5 Metrics to track progress and measure impact. Have to do for compliance and want to show an auditor that you are meeting regulatory requirements. If you don’t have a budget to roll out the program (IT guy) you can ask for help, use YouTube, aarp, sans, dhs,
stop.
think.
Connect, know before
5 stages of a good cybersecurity awareness program. Human survey, compliance-based, growth/behavior change, long term sustainment, metrics. Not going to happen overnight. Could take 3-5 years to implement.
