Seems that I must be doing soemthing right them
The statistic that impressed me was the 95 percent who believed the story to be true. Im betting most IT experts would like to have that percentage of users believing what they say.
That is how I try to advise all clients about Security by telling them a story directly related to what work they do. They seem to understand it better that way, so if they are a Surgeon the story is set in their everyday Work Environment or if they are a Earthmover I tailor the story to something that they can understand. I find I get fewer calls with questions about what they should do when they get something different appearing on their screen and they hopefully learn something along the way.
Of course the tricky bit is knowing what they do each and every day and understanding what their work actually is.
