The key to building security culture is motivating and inspiring your colleagues to take proactive action - focusing on the carrot, not the stick. This can be a lot of work, so we created Katilyst to lift the burden.
Imagine a leveling system, such as karate belts (from White to Black Belt) that people can earn based on their efforts. This is a proven technique used effectively in many security champion programs, and it can go even further, like awarding badges for completing key security milestones or earning a special title for becoming an SME in a security discipline. It's a system that gives people something to aim for, and ensures recognition for putting in the extra effort to level up.
It's a great idea... but how would you implement this? Would you want to do it manually using spreadsheets to track points/accomplishments per person/champion at your company? Even though this system could work and be highly effective in motivating employees, it would be impossible to scale for many organizations who are resource constrained. It's unfortunate, and we hate to think of all the missed opportunities as a result.
But what if you could ease this administrative work by simplifying and automating it? This is what we've built at Katilyst.
Don't like karate belts? How about a Star Wars theme? Or, ditch the leveling system altogether and implement badges, or just points instead. Our tool is completely tailorable to your preferences for what's best in your culture. We would love for an opportunity to listen to you and learn more about your approach and challenges to see where we can help. Click below to schedule a demo!
