ISC2 CISSP Practice Question

Measuring the results from simulated security incidents provides the most valuable insight into the program's effectiveness because it directly demonstrates whether employees are applying the knowledge gained from training in practical scenarios. These simulations test actual behavioral changes rather than just knowledge retention or participation rates.

The number of employees completing training modules only indicates participation, not whether the training changed behaviors or improved security posture. User satisfaction feedback measures how employees felt about the training but doesn't assess knowledge application. The security policy documentation metric focuses on administrative aspects rather than measuring how well employees implement security practices.
