What Cyber Psychology Teaches Us About Smarter Decision-Making ft. Rick Mishka (Ep. 10)

What Cyber Psychology Teaches Us About Smarter Decision-Making ft. Rick Mishka (Ep. 10)

Security incidents don’t usually start because someone is careless. They often start because someone is human, busy, tired, rushed, and trying to do the right thing.

In this conversation, Tony Pietrocola and Joe Marquette sit down with Rick Mischka, Head of Resilience and Senior Director of Education Enablement at AVANT Communications, to break down the psychology behind cybersecurity. They explore why people shouldn’t be dismissed as the “weakest link,” how attackers target attention and trust, and what leaders need to understand about building security programs around real human behavior.

Key takeaways:

  • How AI is accelerating cyber threats and security capabilities
  • Why the human element remains critical in cybersecurity
  • The role Zero Trust plays in reducing organizational risk
  • What business leaders should focus on as AI adoption grows
  • Practical ways to strengthen cyber resilience
  • And more!
