Summary: One way to improve organizational cybersecurity behavior is through comprehensive training programs. Most studies find positive effects of training on improving cybersecurity behavior, regardless of the cybersecurity topic or training method. Game-based training methods are most frequently used, but sample sizes are often small and many interventions are not tested on employees.

Summary: Investing in training and simulations, spreading security culture, and developing awareness among personnel is essential for strengthening protection and resilience of Critical Infrastructure. Attackers pose a major threat due to human vulnerabilities, combining cyber and kinetic operations. Developing a human firewall and enhancing Security Education, Training and Awareness (SETA) is crucial in building a security culture. Achieving awareness in organizations through passive and active training techniques, a hybrid approach is recommended for optimal awareness levels and employee satisfaction.
