Security Awareness Metrics

Security Awareness Metrics

Metrics give you the ability to track and measure the impact of your security awareness program. This can be used to improve your training, demonstrate return on investment, or compare your human risk to other organizations in your industry. All resources here are free, developed by the community for the community. Please send any feedback on how to improve these resources to community@securingthehuman.org.
