New software to solve cybersecurity's human risk challenge

Praxis Security Labs is developing innovative software designed to tackle what may be cybersecurity’s most pressing vulnerability: human behavior. The company’s new solution, Praxis Navigator, analyzes data from existing organizational infrastructure to monitor and understand how employees interact with digital security threats.

The Human Factor Challenge

Research indicates that approximately 95% of cybersecurity incidents trace back to human factors. Rather than relying solely on technical defenses, the Navigator platform takes a behavioral approach. As the company’s co-founder explains, “Cybercriminals are increasingly exploiting human behavior, and traditional technical approaches alone are no longer sufficient.”

Core Features

The platform integrates three main components: an analytics engine, visualization tools, and a recommendation system. Organizations can extract actionable insights from event logs, incident records, and security monitoring systems — data that typically goes underutilized.

The Terrain Model provides visual representations of employee security behaviors, helping teams quickly identify patterns and potential vulnerabilities. The recommendation engine applies academic research and industry expertise to suggest targeted interventions rather than generic solutions.

Organizational Applications

Different departments benefit distinctly. Security teams gain behavioral intelligence; management and boards assess organizational security culture; HR departments can design training programs tailored to actual employee needs rather than one-size-fits-all approaches.

Historical data tracking enables organizations to monitor improvements and detect emerging behavioral trends over time.
