The Mind's Lie: How Our Thoughts and Actions
can be Hacked & Hijacked 

Featuring Perry Carpenter, MSAI, C|CISO 
Chief Evangelist and Strategy Officer at KnowBe4
 
Why do many of us fall for dirty tricks even after we understand how they work?
 
From the slight-of-hand used by magicians, to the slight-of-tongue used by politicians and pundits, to the slight-of-mind that accompanies cognitive bias, we are all wired to deceive and to be deceived.
 
Join Perry Carpenter, author of the highly acclaimed book "Transformational Security Awareness: What Neuroscientists, Storytellers, and Marketers can Teach Us About Driving Secure Behaviors," for an engaging exploration into the dark world of deception.

After laying the groundwork for a basic understanding into our own inclinations and predispositions, Perry will provide interactive examples of how human nature can be used against us. Key topics will include understanding perception vs. reality, how to make people believe anything in 3 easy steps, and what it all implies.

Objectives:

  • Recognize the psychology behind why we fall for scams and schemes
  • List two easy-to-use models for why/how we make decisions
  • Define practical examples of how cybercriminals exploit our decision-making processes
  • Explain where and how we can ethically leverage the foundational principles of what we've covered
