What is learning curve and what are the major attributes of learning curve in cybersecurity?
Learning curve is the depiction in graphical form of the rate of learning cybersecurity concepts, practices, processes, technologies, and so on over a period of time and relative progresses made throughout the learning process. Learning curve is especially applicable in measuring the effectiveness of security awareness training in an organization to evaluate the performance of personnel. The learning curve helps the organization to determine the security training content’s learnability and applicability to bring behavior change among participating personnel. Organizations may plot the learning curve by specifying the time for the learning something on one dimension and the percentage of learning on another dimension of the learning curve graph.
