How Human Risk Management Must Evolve in the Age of AI

In today’s threat environment, attackers don’t just target systems. They target people—and artificial intelligence is accelerating that reality. Generative AI enables social engineering at a scale and level of personalization that many organizations are not prepared to meet. Especially with yesterday’s security awareness models.

Today’s guest is Matt Lindley, the Chief Innovation & Information Security Officer at NINJIO, a cybersecurity awareness training and human risk management platform. Matt is known for his work in emerging cyber threats, social engineering, compliance, AI strategy and transformation, and security risk management—especially where the human element is the critical variable.

This conversation explores what modern human risk management looks like when the adversary can quickly and cheaply produce convincing messages, voices, and narratives. We’ll also touch on two practical supporting themes: How to measure human risk with meaningful metrics, and how to drive culture change without creating security fatigue.
