Beyond the Firewall: The Human Element in Cybersecurity - Corina Hernandez-Muñoz - Episode 179

In this episode, Corina Hernandez-Muñoz, Head, Cyber Behaviour and Culture | Enterprise Information Security (EIS), Export Development Canada explores why effective cybersecurity depends just as much on people as it does on technology. As digital threats become more complex, organisations are recognising that strong systems alone aren't enough — building awareness, shared responsibility and a culture of vigilance across the workforce is essential. This conversation looks at how federal agencies are strengthening their human layer of defence by investing in skills, knowledge and collaboration. You'll hear how leaders are reshaping cybersecurity as a collective effort that blends technology with trust, empowerment and informed decision-making. From leadership engagement to frontline readiness, the episode highlights practical approaches to building cyber-aware teams, improving threat response capabilities and balancing human judgment with AI-driven tools to create a smarter, more resilient defence.
