Welcome to Compromising Positions!
The tech podcast that asks non-cybersecurity professionals what we in the industry can do to make their lives easier and help make our organisations more prepared to face ever-changing human-centric cyber threats!
This week we are joined by Helena Hill, a seasoned UX Strategist and Consultant and AI expert with a wealth of experience spanning diverse clients, from pre-start-ups to global industry giants.
In this episode, we explore the fascinating topic of UX and cybersecurity.
We’re going to learn from the UX function to see how we can create a better user experience for people on their security journey, learn how to get buy-in from the business about implementing controls such as MFA, and how to ‘sell’ our security value offering as a positive user experience.
And of course, crucially, how to take those first few steps to engage with the UX team!
Key Takeaways for this episode are:
UX and Cybersecurity share the same challenge of educating and getting buy-in from the organization to elevate their importance on the business agenda.
Understanding the user journey is crucial for both UX and Cybersecurity teams to build a better usable security journey.
Empathy mapping helps build a picture of a person and understand their needs and expectations.
Leveraging user expectations and their ease of use thresholds can help create appropriate security controls.
Collaboration between UX/UR and Cybersecurity teams can lead to innovation in the security space and improve the user experience.
This is the first of our two part conversation with Helena, next week we will be talking about her other specialism in AI, which kicks off our Christmas miniseries on AI

What is a Persona Non Grata? Developed at DePaul University, the Persona non-grata approach makes threat modelling more tractable by asking users to focus on attackers, their motivations, and their abilities.
