Learning objectives

The aim of this adventure is to educate participants on the importance of data protection and information security, as well as the risks of social engineering tactics.The game highlights how crucial it is to protect personal and sensitive information from unauthorised access or disclosure. Additionally, participants will gain insight into psychological manipulation and deception used in social engineering attacks to trick victims into divulging sensitive information.

It’s about hacking people

Criminal hackers have long realised that it can be easier to hack people than to breach highly secured computer systems. Phishing, CEO fraud, or investment scams are just a few examples of attacks that utilise social engineering techniques to manipulate people into giving up information or money.
Social engineering is the psychological manipulation of individuals aimed at influencing specific behaviours or obtaining confidential information. Unlike traditional "fraud", social engineering is often just one step in a much more complex scheme. (wikipedia.org)
