Which of the following would BEST indicate the effectiveness of a security awareness training program?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

The effectiveness of a security awareness training program is best indicated by areduction in unintentional violations. When employees are well-trained and aware of security practices, they are less likely to inadvertently violate security policies or make mistakes that could lead to breaches.While other factors (such as third-party social engineering tests, employee satisfaction, and completion rates) provide valuable insights, the ultimate goal of security awareness training is to minimize unintentional errors and improve overall security posture12.Reference:1(https://www.isaca.org/resources/isaca-journal/issues/2023/volume-2/considerations-for-developing-cybersecurity-awareness-training)2(https://www.isaca.org/resources/news-and-trends/isaca-now-blog/2023/security-awareness-training-a-critical-success-factor-for-organizations)

You know, I heard the security team had to bribe the employees with free donuts to get them to actually show up for the training. So I'm not sure option C is the best indicator.

Increased number of employees completing the training? Sounds like a participation trophy to me. I want to see actual results, not just attendance records.

Employee satisfaction is important, but it doesn't necessarily mean the training is effective. I'd say option A is the way to go.

Hmm, I don't know. Reduced unintentional violations seems like a good indicator to me. It's all about the real-world impact, isn't it?

I'd go with option A. Third-party social engineering tests are the most objective way to measure the effectiveness of the training.
