About Sarah Aalborg

I help organizations move beyond check-the-box compliance to something that actually works. As the author of Secure by Choice and an expert in human risk and cybersecurity, I specialize in translating behavioral science into smarter security and compliance strategies.

For years, I’ve worked with security and compliance professionals to tackle a common challenge: people don’t behave like compliance clones—so why are we still writing rules as if they do? My approach focuses on how the brain really works, helping organizations build compliance cultures that drive real action, not just paperwork.
