Anatomy of a Breach: The Human Factor

Graham Cluley dissects the mistakes and motives behind real-world incidents

Thursday 7 August 2025 2 p.m. BST Live Zoom Session Matt Lock & Graham Cluley

Every major security incident starts with a human decision. It might be a moment of carelessness, a deliberate act, or someone being manipulated into doing the wrong thing. Whether it’s the person or team behind the attack or the one being targeted, people are at the centre of it all.

In this live fireside chat, cybercrime expert Graham Cluley joins Varonis Field CTO Matt Lock to explore the human behaviours, motives, and missteps behind the biggest incidents of 2025 so far. From social engineering and insider threats to AI-powered deception, we will examine how attackers exploit people and how organisations can better protect them.
