Understanding and shaping behaviour in an interconnected world where humans and agentic AI systems interact, learn, and evolve together.
Vision: A world where security is intuitive, inclusive, and woven into everyday behaviours.
Mission: Our mission is to transform security culture through applied behavioural science. Using evidence-based research methodologies, we help organisations understand the psychological, social, and systemic factors that drive behaviour in digital environments. We systematically decode behaviour patterns, predict security risks, and design interventions that turn good security practices into sustainable habits.
Stay ahead with thought leadership and research exploring the intersection of behavioural science, cybersecurity, and organisational culture.

Read InsightPractical advice, research findings, and expert perspectives on building security-aware cultures.
The cybersecurity industry has spent two decades trying to "change culture" through awareness training, phishing simulations, and policy mandates. The results speak for themselves: human factors remain implicated in over 70% of breaches, and most organisations report little meaningful improvement despite significant investment. The problem isn't effort. It's the sequence.
Read ArticleSecurity Champions programmes are growing. That is the good news. The harder truth is that many programmes plateau after the initial enthusiasm. Champions attend calls, share comms, complete training, and we still see a lot of the same risky behaviours keep surfacing. This article sets out a modern, practical model for helping champion networks to be more effective agents of behaviour
Read ArticleIf you are looking for a single, high-leverage move to strengthen your security culture in 2026, build (and genuinely enforce) a cyber psychological safety policy. Not a poster. Not a slogan. A clear organisational mandate that tells your people, in plain terms, that raising security concerns, reporting mistakes, and admitting uncertainty will be met with fairness, support, and learning, not blame.

CyBehave was founded on a transformative belief: that understanding behaviour, whether human or artificial, is the foundation of safer digital ecosystems.
As autonomous AI systems become integral to our digital infrastructure, we’re expanding the boundaries of behavioural science. We combine rigorous academic research, practical frameworks, and cutting-edge insights to help organisations understand, predict, and shape behaviour across both human users and AI agents.
Whether you’re managing human risk, deploying autonomous AI, or navigating the complex dynamics of human-AI collaboration, CyBehave provides the research, tools, and expertise to make informed decisions.
