It is always a pleasure to speak to passionate cybersecurity leaders and Erica Hardinge from ANZ is no exception. Erica and Claire talked in this episode about SIT and the work they do to bring the security awareness industry together on a regular basis. They discussed the magnitude of her role to influence the behaviours of tens of thousands of staff, and covered the pain points for security professionals when it comes to trying to get their message heard.
Erica is responsible for developing the global strategy for engaging and empowering secure behaviour change across customers and 40,000+ employees over ANZ’s 30+ geographies. Erica feels strongly about the role of sharing and learning across industry to improve the security awareness and enablement function. As such, is excited to have co-founded and grown the Security Influence and Trust group for Awareness professionals in the Australasia region. The group was recognised with the Australian Information Security Association “Educator of the year” award in 2017. Erica completed her MBA qualification at Melbourne Business School in 2008 following the earlier completion of a Bachelor in Arts and Science at Melbourne University, with a focus on Behavioural Sciences, including Criminology, contributing to her passion to help staff become cyber safe.
