Back to some a #SecurityGame I/we tried:
Cyber Threat Defender is a card game created by #CIAS
The target audience is students or the general public.As a player you play the hero and the villain at the same time.
You build up your infrastructure for which you earn points. You try to protect your infrastructure so that you keep earning points. And you attack you opponents' infrastructure.
(I believe the game mechanics are similar to #MagicTheGathering (which I haven't played))The game is a competitive and you play it in pairs. AFAIK there are also Tournaments, at least in the US.
The game teaches about general security topics, common threats and typical (technical) counter measures. As a non-expert you will gain general knowledge and have some fun, as a security expert you will just have some fun.
I think the game is a nice introduction to security and a good tool to create basic awareness without requiring a lot of previous knowledge.
It is not especially adapted to a company environment. I think the value in a this context is limited.
Nevertheless #CyberThreatDefender is fun.
