Security Awareness Planning Tool
By the end of Cybersecurity Awareness Month we want you to be able to show the specific security behaviors your activities have influenced, and the risks that were impacted as a result.
We’ve built a simple, lightweight planning tool based on the Security Behavior Database. The tool lets you map your activities, initiatives, and awareness efforts to the 8 SebDB risk-outcomes, as well as a range of risk factors defined by your organization.
TAXONOMY
