So, What Exactly Is Positioning, and Why Does It Matter?
In this context, positioning means ensuring your people are your first line of defense. Are employees aware of phishing scams? Do they understand how to create secure passwords? Human positioning refers to readiness, awareness, and action.
A Cyber-Ready Team Should Include:
- Trained employees who recognize suspicious links or attachments
- IT managers who regularly test systems for weaknesses
- Leadership committed to ongoing cybersecurity investment
How We Defined Our Positioning: A Step-by-Step Overview
- Deployed internal phishing simulations

Remember, even the best technology can fail if your team isn’t prepared. Positioning your people is key to full-spectrum cybersecurity.
