At C.O.A.S.T., the Scholar Smart training program is focused on 'Daily Dedicated Security Training.' This refers to a practice where individuals, either collectively or as a group, receive a short, focused training session on security protocols and procedures every single day via email, usually covering specific aspects of security relevant to their role and current threats, with the goal of consistently reinforcing security awareness and best practices.
