Our 3 top tips for planning your Cyber Month campaign

Our 3 top tips for planning your Cyber Month campaign

01 Make it fun and engaging

Engagement is key to effective learning. Think beyond the traditional lecture format and incorporate gamification mechanisms, interactive challenges, peer-2-peer learning and compelling storytelling.

For inspiration, check out our unique, narrative-driven Virtual Escape Room called Beat the Hacker, where the participants are taken from passive listeners to active contributors by solving up to 12 cybersecurity challenges.

02 Make it competitive

Leverage the power of competition to drive engagement. People love a good challenge, and introducing a competitive element can boost participation and enthusiasm. Whether it’s individual challenges, team vs. team battles, or departmentwide competitions, leaderboards and prizes can add an exciting edge to your cybersecurity month.

To amplify excitement, share a cool promo trailer and some cybersecurity themed images with your team and create a buzz before the event kicks off!

03 Make it easily accessible

Last but not least – how do you make sure as many participants as possible can take part in a simple and efficient way?

Some considerations
How will people take part? Individually, in groups or both?
How will the activity be distributed? Email, a campaign site or in a road show?
And is this a one-off? Or part of a series of activities?

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about setup, IT requirements, and campaign delivery

How quickly can we get a Cyber Month activity up and running?

Fast — most customers go from first call to live campaign within a few days. Because Beat the Hacker® and our mini-games are pre-built and browser-based, there’s no software to install and nothing for your IT team to deploy. You pick the activity, we set up your campaign link, and you share it with your team. No custom content development, no long lead time.

How do people actually take part?

However suits your organization. The 5-minute Cyber Challenge runs on smartphones and is ideal for road shows and drop-in events. The 15-minute Escape Room is played individually on computers and works well for company-wide campaigns. The 30-minute Escape Room is built for small teams of 3–6, in person or virtually. You can run one, or combine them across the month.

What if not everyone takes part?

Our pricing model is based on a set number of licenses. The more you buy upfrint the better price you get. However, if you’re unsure on usage, you can always start low and purchase additional licenses later. Or, extend you campaign duration to give staff plenty of time to complete the challenges.

How much setup work is this for me and my IT team?

Almost none. There’s nothing to install — everything runs in the browser on phones or computers. You don’t need to provision accounts, manage software, or involve IT in a deployment. For most Cyber Month campaigns, your only real task is communicating the activity to your team and choosing when to run it. We handle the rest.

Can we run this across multiple offices, countries, or languages?

Yes. We’ve rolled out company-wide campaigns across distributed teams, and the activities are designed to scale from a single team to a global workforce. If you need multiple languages or staggered rollouts across regions, we can structure the campaign around that.

How do we know it actually landed with employees?

You get participation and engagement data from the campaign, so you can show leadership real turnout and completion numbers rather than just “we sent a video.” Compared with passive slide decks, the interactive format is far more likely to be remembered — which is the point of running Cyber Month in the first place.

How do we roll this out to remote or hybrid teams?

Our Cyber Month activities are built specifically for modern, distributed workplaces:

  • For individuals: Employees can play at their own pace on any laptop or smartphone simply by clicking your campaign link.

  • For live team events: Pop your participants into a Microsoft Teams or Zoom meeting, send them to breakout rooms in groups of 3–6, and have one person share their screen and audio. It’s highly collaborative and requires no physical setup.

What kinds of activities can we run during Cyber Month?

3-5 Minute Mini-Games: Perfect for roadshows, weekly check-ins, or interactive kiosks. Employees can scan a quick QR code on their smartphones to play.

15-Minute Awareness Campaigns: Ideal individual challenges. Easily distributed via a link or SCORM into your LMS to run as a company-wide competition.

30-Minute Cyber Escape Rooms: Our premier team-based event (Beat the Hacker®), where groups work together to solve up to 12 interactive missions.

What actual cybersecurity topics do the games cover?

Instead of dry compliance theory, players deal with modern, real-world threats. The challenges cover Phishing, AI Voice Cloning, Smishing (SMS phishing), MFA, LinkedIn scams, Deepfakes and more. Each gamified challenge is followed by an instant, bite-sized key learning takeaway.
