How does SecuriThink relate to Security Education and Awareness (SEA) efforts?
SEA is a subset of a SecuriThink engagement strategy. We work in cooperation with existing efforts and leverage them to the fullest extent possible.
Cultural Armour includes SEA while also integrating more broadly and deeply into your cybersecurity strategy and enterprise business operations.
While specific SEA-focused deliverables depend on your situation assessment, a strategy that ensures results at levels 3+ incorporates additional dimensions drawn from organizational learning and performance coaching to lay a foundation that includes motivation and reinforcement for sustained behavior change.
Cooperation with existing SEA efforts have included adjustments such as:
- Adding messages that make the business case for your cybersecurity decisions
- Integrating SEA more tightly with other enterprise changes
- Promoting collaboration between SEA team and other internal resources
- Put more or different employee feedback mechanisms in place
- Craft gradient of difficulty to keep more employees challenged

How does SecuriThink relate to the maturity scale for cybersecurity?
While various cybersecurity maturity scales do not map directly to the 5 levels of results in SecuriThink methodology, there is a lot of common ground at the highest levels of both.
Why does a SecuriThink project always begin with an assessment?
Our clients engage us to get from one place to another so we might think of an example as “We’re in Chicago and we want you to help us get to San Francisco.” What we’ve learned is that someone who says they’re in Chicago might actually be in St. Louis or maybe even Miami.

Cultural ArmourTM is achieved when cybersecurity is embedded in company culture. It means you walk the talk that “Everyone has a role in cybersecurity.”
