Assess, develop, and build cyber defenses with the
Mercer | Mettl Cybersecurity Assessment Solution

Over the past five years, there has been a staggering 75% increase in the number of known cyber-attacks, according to EY 2023 Global Cybersecurity Leadership Insights.

This rise in cyber incidents has prompted organizations to address the
human elements of cyber risk.

According to Mercer’s Global Talent Trends 2024, 44% of C-suite executives believe that mitigating the human elements of cyber risk is one of the top 10 most impactful people initiatives for their business in 2024.

While most companies are busy building post-incident defenses, the Mercer | Mettl Cybersecurity Assessment Solutions help avoid cyber incidents by building a security-first culture.

Overview

In today's fast-changing tech landscape, with

AI dominance, remote work, and networked organizations, cyber threats are increasing.

Technology integration has transformed how we work, boosting productivity but also creating new challenges and vulnerabilities. As organizations adapt to these changes, building risk-resilient organizations is crucial.

With statistics revealing that 84% of employees report exposing their company's proprietary data in the past three months, it is essential to address potential vulnerabilities to implement targeted risk mitigation initiatives and build a security-first culture.

What does the framework assess?

Mercer's cybersecurity framework goes beyond traditional security measures by recognizing the critical role of people and culture in mitigating cyber risks.

01. People risk profile

Our framework evaluates people risk through a comprehensive assessment of personality and behavioral competencies. By analyzing individual risk predispositions, we identify potential vulnerabilities within your workforce.

02. Cultural risk profile

We provide valuable insights into your organization's overall cybersecurity posture. By assessing cultural risk across multiple dimensions of people's behavior and cultural tendencies, we identify strengths and weaknesses in your organization's security culture.

Insightful reports for further development plans

The assessment offers two different reports to get a better picture:

Sneak peek

We analyzed the assessment data of 1600+ professionals to understand the personality traits of the current workforce, which is comprised of Gen X (born between 1965–1980), Gen Y or Millennials (born between 1981–2000) and Gen Z (born 2001–2020).

Based on primary and secondary research, Mercer | Mettl has compiled key recommendations that companies can implement immediately to get the best out of the strengths of each generation at work and align them to create a more significant impact.
