AI detects behavioural cyber risks

The platform tracks risky digital interactions and helps to fix potential problems

Spotted: Large-scale digital data breaches are becoming more costly, with IBM research finding that the global average cost of a data breach in 2024 is now $4.88 million, up 10 per cent over the last year. Human mistakes sometimes contribute to or cause data breaches, too, with individuals accidentally clicking on phishing links, using an insecure password, or sharing sensitive data.

Helping organisations increase the strength of their business’ security is UK-based CultureAI. CultureAI uses a Human Risk Dashboard to support digital security teams in monitoring, coaching, and responding to risky online behaviour by employees. By monitoring more than 35 different behaviours, such as putting confidential data into ChatGPT or reusing a password, the Human Risk Dashboard automatically nudges the individual to fix the potential risk.

The dashboard works by tracking the SaaS apps that employees use and analysing the security of their interactions. Gamified security awareness training can be delivered automatically to teams and individuals, along with personalised advice for strengthening their online interactions.

Managers can also set up and manage reward schemes through the dashboard to encourage completion of training modules. Should an emergency arise, the AI connects the security team with the employee to fast-track damage limitation procedures. CultureAI’s system works at home and in the office and provides a phishing reporting button for mobile, desktop, and web.

The platform is available for subscription at three different levels and includes access to a knowledge base of guides and support for making the best use of CultureAI’s resources.
