SANS Workforce Security Knowledge Assessment

The SANS Workforce Security Knowledge Assessment measures your learners’ cyber security knowledge.

What is a SANS Workforce Security Knowledge Assessment?

This assessment is based upon guidance from SANS Subject Matter Experts, instructors, and psychometricians on what a learner in today’s technical- driven environment should know, understand, and be able to demonstrate to properly protect themselves and their organization from known security risks. By identifying specific areas of risk or weakness that require the most attention, you can focus your training efforts on the learning activities that are most needed to guide and prepare learners to become successful within your organization.
