The Impact of Cybersecurity Awareness on Phishing Attack Vulnerability

DODarlington Chigozie Okeke

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore how cybersecurity awareness affects vulnerability to phishing attacks.
  • Examined relationships between cybersecurity awareness and phishing vulnerability
  • Analyzed the effect of training frequency on awareness and vulnerability
  • Utilized surveys and assessments to measure outcomes
  • Increased cybersecurity training led to a 30% reduction in vulnerability to phishing attacks (RR 0.7, 95% CI 0.6-0.8, p<0.01)
  • Higher awareness scores correlated with a significant decrease in the number of phishing incidents reported
  • Demonstrated that frequent training enhances recognition of phishing attempts

Abstract

Phishing has become the most common cybersecurity threat and increasingly exploits human factors rather than technical vulnerabilities. This study examined the relationships between cybersecurity awareness, training frequency... | Find, read and cite all the research you need on Tech Science Press
