Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) continue to face significant cybersecurity challenges due to limited financial resources, technical capacity, and awareness.

The enhanced ROHAN model addresses this need by delivering customized cybersecurity education based on industry sector, professional role, and educational background.
