Service Notice: CSAM2022 Week 4: Can you stop the hacker?

Week 4 gives you a chance to use your knowledge and defeat the hacker. In this game, a hacker has made it inside our offices and has spotted an unlocked workstation. Can you use your cybersecurity knowledge to stop the hacker before our network is compromised?

Answer the security awareness training-related questions correctly, and you will move closer to the workstation. Answer incorrectly, and the hacker will move closer.

Stop the hacker, get to that workstation, and save the organization. Game on!
