human errors
Safe driving and/vs IT usage --- Good analogy with safety while driving. Yet, we have specialised training and certification for driving; we don't have anything like that for using the Internet and IT devices - even though consequences of our misbehavior can be grave. Should we have such a thing - a driving license for using digital tools/cyberspace?
If so, should we have similar categories depending on possible effect/disaster our ignorance could cause? Eg. most of us would fall under the basic category (say 'A') which should only read some safety manuals; those whose devices are connected to SMEs and organisations would be category 'B' which would need to pass some anti-phishing and basic digital hygiene tests; 'C' would be for employees in public authorities, 'D' in critical infrastructure systems, and 'E' in defence and supercritical infrastructure, etc?
And who would be the 'cyber-policemen' that would control our 'seat-belts and speed' along our drive?
