Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Influencing human behavior is the primary benefit of an information security awareness training program because it helps to reduce the human errors and vulnerabilities that can compromise the security of data and systems. An information security awareness training program is a process or a program that informs and empowers users to protect data and computing assets from security risks and cyberattacks. It includes educational offerings that cover regulatory requirements, compliance policies, and safe computing practices. An information security awareness training program helps to influence human behavior by raising awareness of the security threats and challenges, enhancing knowledge and skills of the security best practices and controls, and fostering a positive security culture and attitude among the users. By influencing human behavior, an information security awareness training program can improve the security posture and performance of the organization, as well as prevent or mitigate the impact of security incidents. Therefore, influencing human behavior is the correct answer.

B) Cost-benefit analysis all the way! Gotta make sure we're not spending more on mitigation than the risk is worth. Penny-pinching is an art form, folks.
