Description
Users are the first line of security controls for smartphone/tablet systems. They must be trained in using smartphone security controls or the system could be vulnerable to attack. All smartphone and tablet users must receive security training on the device before they are issued a smartphone. If training is not renewed on an annual basis, users may not be informed of new security procedures or may forget previously trained procedures, which could lead to an exposure of sensitive DoD information.
