Businesses must focus on positively changing user behavior to improve their security posture.

In order to do this, enterprises need to use contextualized, longitudinal learning to consistently educate users over time.

Longitudinal learning is a teaching method that is gaining traction within academia, particularly for corporate training.

Studies on longitudinal learning in healthcare showed that testing medical students in combination with explaining the information is the most effective way to drive the long-term retention of information.

Longitudinal learning foregoes extended learning sessions for microlessons that are delivered more regularly.

Given the number of projects, apps, and other tasks knowledge workers are routinely tasked with, longitudinal learning offers a way to transform security awareness training into personalized coaching that fits easily into employees' busy schedules.
