Why do cyber security programmes fail?

Cyber Security: A Peer-Reviewed Journal, 2019, vol. 2, issue 4, 303-309

Abstract: Despite the torrent of news about hacks, despite the clearly elevated awareness, despite the increasingly sophisticated tools and services, despite regulatory requirements, cyber security programmes are not always successful. Why do they fail? Where do they fall short? These should be key questions for everyone in business, government, technology and cyber security. If we know the problem with cyber security, and have ways of addressing the problem, why are we still failing? Without answers to these questions, all our work in cyber security amounts to building sandcastles.
