Training past due
A risky Behavior signal from the awareness platform (SAT, training.past.due): this person has an assigned security course that passed its due date unfinished.
Classification
- Risk domain One of 9 areas of human risk, from social engineering to readiness and response. Every signal belongs to one.
- Evidence level
- Maturity practices One capability a program performs, scored on its own: See, Understand, Act, Prove, Govern and Culture.
- Leads to The kind of breach the evidence beneath it points toward, each anchored to a Verizon DBIR or VERIS pattern or an FBI IC3 category.
- NIST CSF 2.0

- PR.AT-01
- MITRE ATT&CK

How it is used
Programs count "Training past due" per person from Awareness & phishing simulation and read it beside the other Readiness and response signals; it feeds 0 cohorts, 0 sequences and 2 breach scenarios.
A "training past due" event is evidence of behavior under pressure. It is one observed action, and on its own it is no proof of compromise.
