How often should we conduct training with Infosec IQ?

Product Marketing

It depends on various factors specific to your organization, but many find that a regular cadence—such as quarterly training sessions—strikes a good balance. Background/context: Cybersecurity threats continue to emerge, and your team needs to stay updated. Infosec IQ offers training modules that let you establish a routine training schedule matching your organization's risk factors and needs. How it actually works: Many organizations run quarterly training sessions, which lets employees refresh their knowledge regularly without overwhelming them. This schedule allows time for knowledge retention while making room for new training materials. Infosec IQ's platform lets you choose different training topics for each session, keeping content fresh and relevant. After each training, you can run phishing simulations to test employees' retention of the material and reinforce their learning. Who this fits and who it doesn't: This approach works for organizations with ongoing exposure to cybersecurity risks, especially those handling sensitive data. If your organization has very low risk exposure or minimal employee turnover, less frequent sessions may be sufficient. Trade-offs and honest caveats: While regular training is beneficial, training fatigue is a real risk—employees may disengage if overwhelmed with content. Balance is important to keep training relevant and engaging. Closing practical advice: Evaluate your organization's specific risks and adjust your training frequency accordingly. Gathering employee feedback after training sessions helps you tailor the schedule to their learning preferences.
