Measuring the Effectiveness of U.S. Government Security Awareness Programs: A Mixed-Methods Study

The National Institute of Standards and Technology provides new insights into how security awareness programs approach and struggle with measuring effectiveness within a yet-to-be-explored context.

This understanding can inform government security awareness professionals, organizational decision makers, and policy makers in their efforts to improve security awareness programs. Results are also contributing to the development of a publication to guide organizations in building effective security awareness programs.
