Stopping risk
in its tracks

How Intelligent Behaviour Change
is Shaping 2026 and Beyond

Introduction

Intelligent behaviour change is rapidly becoming the missing piece in Human Risk Management. We’ve spent years working with organisations who have great tools and strong policies, yet still see people taking risky actions at the worst possible moments because the training they took was long before or long after the risky action(s) in question. That’s exactly the gap intelligent behaviour change is designed to close – by stepping in when and where it matters most, especially right before someone is about to do something risky.

Welcome to our Intelligent Behaviour Change Hub!

This is where we’ll explore what’s really happening in the flow of work: in the depth of where your Human Risk actually lies, unpack which behaviours organisations are most worried about, and whether people are genuinely following policies and sticking to approved AI tools.

Micro behaviour signals

We’ll look at micro signals of safer behaviour – like hovering over links before clicking – and higher risk ones, such as clicking links from new senders without checking.

Behaviour Timing and Interventions

We’ll examine when these behaviours tend to occur and, crucially, whether well-timed interventions in those moments are truly changing what people do.

Moving beyond awareness

If you want to move beyond generic awareness and towards measurable, intelligent behaviour change, this is where the conversation starts!

From Insight to Impact

Using insights from the latest Redflags Behavioural Impact Report, this session will examine how employees are using AI in the workplace, where risk emerges, and how a focused, campaign-led approach can help security teams reduce risk at the moments that matter most.

Insights from Real-World
Behaviour

We have carried out in depth research into intelligent behaviours, and we’re excited to share what we’ve discovered with you. This research digs into real-world behaviour to show where Human Risk truly lies, beyond training completion rates and policy documents.

RESEARCH FINDINGS

Security Behaviour in the Age of AI

We explore which behaviours organisations are most worried about, whether employees are really following policies and sticking to approved AI tools, and how they interact with everyday threats: are they hovering over links before clicking, and how often are they clicking links from new senders? We also look at whether well-timed interventions are genuinely changing what people do.

Let’s talk tech with
Tim and Jamie

Our research highlights just how big the gap still is between what people know they should do for security and what actually happens in the moment. Sadly, real risk lives in the everyday decisions of a relatively small number of higherrisk individuals. 

So what can you do about it? In this short Tech Talk between Tim and Jamie, we’ll show how segmenting your data to identify and target higherrisk groups can drive better behaviours, and how our Intervention Report and Risk Report give you actionable insight and ongoing support to focus effort where it has the greatest impact.
