Mimecast Engage’s new Human Risk Scorecards for end users put actionable security insights directly in your people’s hands—helping everyone understand, own, and improve their role in protecting your organization.
See Your Security Impact—One User at a Time
Mimecast is excited to announce the launch of Human Risk Scorecards for end users, a new Engage feature designed to make security personal, transparent, and actionable. Now, every person in your organization can view their own risk score, see what’s driving it, and get clear guidance on how to improve. What does this mean for you?
- For administrators: You gain a powerful new lever for driving engagement and measurable risk reduction.
- For end users: Security becomes less abstract and more empowering, with personalized feedback and recommendations.
What Are Human Risk Scorecards for End Users?
Human Risk Scorecards for end users provide each person with a private, easy-to-understand personalized risk summary showing:
- Their current Human Risk Score Level: a reflection of their actions, such as training completion and responses to phishing simulations.
- Score breakdowns: insights into which behaviors are helping or hurting their score.
- Customizable, behavior specific, Calls to Action: allows you to provide recommendations with clear, actionable steps to improve their security posture, in line with your organizational policies.
This feature is fully integrated with Engage’s existing training and phishing simulation exercises, ensuring a seamless experience for both users and administrators.
Why This Matters: Benefits for Your Organization
- Personalized Awareness: Users see their own risk, making security relevant and real.
- Targeted Interventions: Users get feedback based on their individual needs.
- Continuous Improvement: Users track progress and see the impact of their actions.
- Organizational Risk Reduction: Create a corporate security culture that empowers users to help lower overall human risk.
Best Practices for Rolling Out Human Risk Scorecards
Rolling out a new feature like Human Risk Scorecards is most successful when approached with a structured plan. Here’s how to get the most value from your rollout:
1. Start with Stakeholder Alignment
- Engage key stakeholders early—security admins, IT leaders, and end users—to ensure everyone understands the benefits and goals of the new feature.
- Communicate how scorecards will help address current pain points, such as limited visibility or difficulty connecting training to risky behavior.
2. Implement in Phases
- Begin with a pilot group or department to validate the feature in a controlled environment.
- Use feedback from the pilot to refine your rollout plan and address any challenges before expanding organization wide.
3. Establish Success Metrics
- Define clear adoption and impact metrics, such as user engagement and changes in risk scores.
- Regularly review these metrics to track progress and demonstrate value to leadership.
5. Optimize Over Time
- Collect feedback from users and stakeholders to continuously improve your approach.
- Adjust template parameters and workflows as your organization’s needs evolve.
