RE: Security Games

["Leach Brian TSgt USAFE/A2S" <Brian.Leach () ramstein af mil>]

The Government (Defense Information Systems Agency) put out a great
training tool as a game called Cyber Protect. It deals with building a
secure network (proxies, firewalls, AV programs etc) it also enforces
the training concept itself as one of the attacks against the network is
social engineering. It is based in a company environment. As a Systems
Security Tech for the Air Force I use this as a way to break the ice
during training sessions and it does a good job of showing the trainees
their knowledge level.
