Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -There’s no denying that humans are the weakest link in cybersecurity. No matter how strong your technical defences, such as firewall, IPS, or IDS, are, they can always be circumvented by a determined attacker if they can find a way to trick or coerce a member of your staff into giving them access.
Detailed explanation-2: -People are error prone because no clear solution exists. People will make the same mistake multiple times because they are unpredictable. At the core, the inability to find a way to prevent people from making the same mistake more than once makes them the weakest link in the chain.
