Cyber Human Risk Management (CHRM)
OutThink
Psychographic segmentation, adaptive training, and human risk intelligence, founded on the cognitive-science research of Prof Angela Sasse.
OutThink pioneered Cyber Human Risk Management, a category that treats the human layer as a measurable, manageable risk surface. The platform builds on Prof Angela Sasse's psychographic research to segment your workforce into behavioural profiles, then tailors security awareness training, phishing simulation, and nudging interventions to each segment. The outcome is training that doesn't just complete, it actually moves behaviour and reduces risk.
Why This Partnership Matters
What OutThink gives our clients
Psychographic segmentation moves beyond role-based training, each person sees content matched to their cognitive profile.
Adaptive training measurably reduces click rates, credential submission, and policy bypasses over time.
Human Risk Intelligence feeds SOC/SIEM, human-factor signals become first-class citizens in your detection programme.
Rooted in peer-reviewed research, not folklore, a credible foundation for your board and your auditors.
Enterprise-scale deployments across finance, government, telecoms, and critical infrastructure.
Product Lines We Deliver
OutThink products we implement and manage
OutThink CHRM Platform
The integrated Cyber Human Risk Management suite, segmentation, training, phishing, nudging, analytics, and reporting in one platform.
Psychographic Segmentation Engine
Built on Prof Angela Sasse's research. Profiles users by cognitive style, risk disposition, and security motivation, then personalises every intervention.
Adaptive Security Awareness Training (ASAT)
Training content that adjusts to each user's psychographic profile, prior performance, and live threat landscape. Completion rises, engagement rises, risk falls.
Advanced Phishing Simulation
Realistic payload libraries covering credential harvesting, malware delivery, BEC, and voice phishing, delivered in tempo with training interventions.
Human Risk Intelligence Dashboards
Executive and operational dashboards that turn human-factor risk into a governable KPI, trends, hotspots, cohorts, and intervention outcomes.
Behaviour-Change Engagement Modules
Nudge-based interventions that reinforce secure behaviour at the moment of decision, not weeks after in a training room.
SOC / SIEM Integration
Human-factor telemetry surfaced to your SOC, users at elevated risk get flagged, feeding detection logic and incident triage.
Differentiators
