In my talk, I'll dive into the world of game-based learning in cybersecurity, showcasing HackBack - a unique framework that blends role-playing game elements with security training. I'll explain how HackBack revolutionises traditional methods by providing immersive, risk-free simulations of security situations, both offensive and defensive, making it ideal for teaching concepts like Zero Trust and enhancing teamwork and empathy among participants. We'll explore the open-source nature of HackBack and how it fosters a community-driven approach to cybersecurity education, making it accessible and adaptable to various settings.
