Human layer security and hacking
Podcast|by Leanne Bevan|8 December 2025

From developers to decision makers, reception to security heads - everyone has a responsibility when it comes to security. Cyber criminals are more sophisticated; it's no longer if your organisation will face a cyber attack, but when. That's why regular training and awareness aren't just nice-to-haves or processes to tick a compliance box - they're essential. Human layer security and hacking should be top of mind for your business.
In this episode of our podcast Grey Matter Talks Tech, our Azure specialist Sam Barnes sites down with Scott Harrison, our cyber security expert, and Robert Hogg - CEO of Black Marble. Together, they unpack the realities of modern threats when it comes to cyber security and hacking. They discuss topics like the types of hacks we face, social engineering and the changing the security culture.
