Podcast ep 66: Night Markets to Cyber Mindsets: Rethinking Security Awareness with Eric Pinkerton

Why does traditional cyber security awareness training so often fail to change behaviour? In this episode of Share Today, Save Tomorrow, Bec Chebb sits down with Eric “Pinky” Pinkerton to explore the gap between compliance-driven training and genuine cyber resilience.

Using relatable real-world examples, including navigating unfamiliar cities and bustling night markets, Pinky explains how developing a mindset of situational awareness can help people better recognise and respond to online threats. The conversation challenges conventional approaches to security education and offers practical insights into building a stronger, more resilient security culture.
