Annual Security Awareness Training is a Waste of Time | Huntress

Annual security awareness training delivered once per year is ineffective for building employee security practices. Continuous, ongoing security awareness programs are needed to maintain vigilance and adapt to evolving cyber threats.

Why it matters: Security leaders and training administrators need to assess whether annual training programs meet modern threat landscapes; practitioners should consider shifting to continuous awareness initiatives to reduce human-centered risk.
