Cyber Shield: a video game for cybersecurity awareness
Playful innovation for corporate cyber protection: Gamindo launches Cyber Shield
Gamindo created the video game “Cyber Shield” to train employees in the basics of cybersecurity. Through an interactive platform, players learn and practice defense strategies against cyber attacks. The goal is to create an engaging environment to develop solid cybersecurity skills.
Gamindo, a social gaming startup based in Treviso, has developed an innovative video game called "Cyber Shield" with the aim of engaging and training company employees on the basics of cybersecurity in a fun and effective way. The game was created in collaboration with cybersecurity expert Luca Viganò from King's College London and offers an interactive platform to learn and practice defense strategies against cyber attacks.
A journey into the world of cyber security
"Cyber Shield" offers an immersive experience in a virtual world, with avatars guided by an expert "guru" on the subject. The game covers a number of critical cybersecurity topics, including the importance of strong passwords, using two-factor authentication, the risk of phishing, QR code threats, and the dangers of malware.
An innovative approach to learning cybersecurity
Through interactive modules and game scenarios, employees can learn and practice defense strategies against cyber attacks. At the end of each module, there is a final test to verify the knowledge acquired. According to Nicolò Santin, CEO of Gamindo, the goal of the game is to create an engaging and immersive environment to have fun and develop solid skills in the field of cybersecurity. The use of interactive content and game dynamics makes it easier to deal with complex and usually boring topics, promoting better practical application of the concepts learned.
The importance of cybersecurity awareness in companies
Given the increase in cyber attacks in companies, it is becoming increasingly important to invest in raising employee awareness of cyber security. “Cyber Shield” offers an innovative and engaging way of tackling this problem, allowing companies to train staff effectively while having fun. The combination of gaming platforms and technical skills ensures greater awareness and preparation in countering the increasingly sophisticated cyber threats present in the modern world.
