To that end, using its Gamified Assessment Tool, Kaspersky found that only 11 percent of employees showcased the required level of awareness, which has seen the company highlight the importance of cybersecurity training. “One in ten of test participants were awarded a Certificate of Excellence, meaning they gave correct responses, scored over 90 percent of possible points,” highlights Kaspersky in a press release sent to Hypertext.
“Most users – 61 percent – achieved an ‘average’ result ranging from 82 percent to 90 percent points, while 28 percent could not prove sufficient knowledge of cybersecurity knowledge, scoring less than 75 percent,” it adds.
