"This recognition reflects a broader market shift," said Ashley Rose, CEO and Co-Founder of Living Security. "Security leaders are moving beyond awareness and compliance toward measurable risk reduction. Human Risk Management is emerging as a core control layer within the modern security stack, and Workforce Security is becoming a strategic priority at the board level."

Human Risk Management (HRM) Emerges as a Core Workforce Security Control Layer

As threat actors increasingly exploit human behavior, identity misuse, and social engineering, organizations are re-evaluating traditional security approaches that lack continuous visibility into user risk.

Human Risk Management (HRM) is rapidly emerging as a foundational control domain, focused on quantifying, prioritizing, and reducing human-driven risk across the enterprise. This shift aligns with broader industry trends toward continuous risk assessment, identity-centric security, and measurable security outcomes.

Living Security's AI-native platform operationalizes HRM by enabling organizations to:

• Quantify workforce risk posture across employees, contractors, and third parties

• Continuously assess behavioral risk signals and prioritize high-risk users

• Automate targeted risk reduction actions based on real-time intelligence

• Integrate identity, behavior, and access data into a unified Workforce Security model

This approach enables security teams to transition from reactive awareness programs to proactive, intelligence-driven risk management, delivering measurable outcomes including a 50% reduction in risky users and 60% faster remediation.

AI-Driven Human Risk Management Enables Measurable Workforce Risk Reduction

Living Security's top-tier innovation score reflects its continued investment in AI-driven security capabilities, including its Livvy AI engine, which correlates behavioral intelligence, identity telemetry, and risk signals to deliver actionable insights at scale.

As enterprises adopt AI agents and automation, the definition of the workforce is expanding beyond human users. Living Security is uniquely positioned to address this shift by enabling organizations to manage risk across a hybrid workforce of human and non-human identities, a key requirement for modern Workforce Security strategies.

Workforce Security Expands to Address Human and Machine Identity Risk

As enterprises adopt AI agents and automation, the definition of the workforce is expanding beyond human users. Workforce Security is emerging as a unified model that addresses risk across both human and machine identities, including employees, contractors, service accounts, and autonomous systems.

Living Security's platform enables organizations to understand and manage this combined risk surface by correlating identity, behavior, and access, providing a more complete view of enterprise risk in modern environments.

Market Validation Signals Convergence of Identity Security and Human Risk Management

Living Security's inclusion among the Top 25 Cybersecurity Companies reflects increasing alignment across the analyst and practitioner communities around the importance of HRM. As organizations mature their security programs, there is growing emphasis on risk quantification, outcome-based metrics, and integrated security architectures that bridge identity, behavior, and threat intelligence.

This recognition underscores Living Security's role in defining and advancing the Human Risk Management category, as well as its ability to deliver measurable, enterprise-scale risk reduction.
