The story
A hacker has managed to take over your network and encrypt your company files. But the hacker is not motivated by cash, the agenda is more philosophical. He wants your team members to prove that they understand the importance of cyber security, and that they are ready to help build a security culture. If they succeed, the files will be returned.
Quick and easy set-up
The game is run online, on a browser. All you need is a computer or tablet with an Internet connection. The game is started with a simple click on a link (one single link for all teams). You’re up and running in seconds and there is no need for downloads.
For virtual deliveries (Zoom/Teams etc) one team member shares the screen and audio. For in-person events, 3-5 people share one device.
