Cybersecurity begins and ends with people — not tools.
In the very first episode of The Cyber Mettle Podcast, hosts Omar Sangurima and Alyson Laderman break down the reality that most organizations overlook: you cannot build cyber resilience without understanding human behavior, communication, culture, and the legal and business forces shaping technology.
This episode goes deep into the human side of cybersecurity and explores how empathy, basic education, and honest leadership can close the gaps that firewalls never will. From cyber apathy to data ethics, AI adoption, cyber insurance confusion, and the patchwork of global cyber laws, Omar and Alyson connect the dots between people, policy, and modern risk.
If you work in cybersecurity, leadership, governance, law, AI, or risk management — or you’re simply trying to make sense of how all these forces collide — this episode gives you clarity, context, and a more grounded understanding of resilience.
Topics we cover in this episode include:
• Why cybersecurity apathy is growing
• How basic education changes risk outcomes
• The real human cost of security failures
• Government, regulation & the patchwork of cyber laws
• AI integration and digital ethics
• What cyber insurance really covers (and doesn’t)
• Why communication failures cause more incidents than tools
• How community-driven cybersecurity builds long-term resilience
If you want cybersecurity conversations without the fear, hype, or ego — this is where we start.
