Cybersecurity made fun . .
The NOVA cybersecurity lab is an interactive beginner friendly way of understanding concepts of cyber attacks on a website. The lab helps users understand how social media platforms (or any website with several users) protects its servers and data. For myself personally I had played for " Einstagram " , the lab has different levels of security that help the user learn to purchase anti-virus software and other ways to protect from data breech. The more coins you accumulate the better your chances are of surviving attacks. For example in one of the games you are required to learn how to code as shown in the image above. Each command will help move your robot to the proper place, this is to help teach us how coding helps in screening firmware and blocking any attacks through the coding of your site. Another example of a lab identifying phishing in emails and calls. Often times emails will have give aways like the email address they are sending to, the name having been misspelled or clear motive to gain personal or financial information. Often times users are susceptible to Cyber attacks like these because they may look identical to a legitimate person/corporation.
