CISA recently shared its “Cybersecurity Emotions” series detailing social engineering tactics that threat actors often use when implementing various tactics against organizations and internet facing users. Organizations can add CISA’s “Cybersecurity Emotions” to security awareness training as each of the “emotions” are effectively described and explained giving relatable real-world understanding of these tactics and helping users learn the basics of “cyber hygiene.”

 “Cybersecurity Emotions” utilizes various personas to effectively illustrate common feelings elicited through social engineering, such as:

• Happy
• Fear
• Unmotivated
• Logic
• Irritation

These characters come together to create a vibrant narrative that makes the exploration of cybersecurity practices not only informative but also entertaining.
