Paper Abstract:
|
Cybersecurity is broadly considered an important concept for the protection of individuals and families, and also governments and organizations from online threats. This importance notwithstanding, there is a lack of understanding regarding cybersecurity globally, not only within the working class but within the general public. It can therefore be deduced, that there must also exist a lack of understanding regarding the technical principles of cybersecurity, such as how an individual's computer keeps them safe within an online environment using techniques such as firewalls and cryptography. This paper addresses this lack of understanding by means of a serious game. |
