CERTIFIED-IN-CYBERSECURITY Question #218: Real Exam Question with Answer & Explanation

Question

Why is it important to conduct security awareness training regularly?

Options

• ATo enable employees to bypass security controlS
• BTo decrease the need for security policies and procedures
• CTo ensure employees stay up to date with the latest security threats and best practices
• DTo avoid conducting security audits and assessments

Explanation

It is important to conduct security awareness training on a regular basis to ensure employees stay up to date with the latest security threats and best practices (see ISC2 Study Guide, Module 4, under Security Awareness Training). Security awareness training helps employees learn how to protect themselves and the organization from threats, understand security best practices, and be aware of new security technologies. In this way, employees identify threats and help protect the organization. The remaining options are incorrect because bypassing security controls, decreasing the need for security policies and procedures, and avoiding conducting security audits and assessments are not the primary goals of security awareness training.
