Why policy needs real awareness

Technical measures can’t protect against human error. And a policy no one reads is no policy at all. To be effective, your awareness policy must:

  • Define awareness as a continuous commitment.
  • Set clear behavioral standards for all roles.
  • Align with the NIS2 directive and local regulations.
  • Specify how awareness will be tested, improved and maintained.
  • Be simple, relatable and actionable.

From policy to practice

Cyber Crime Game lets your people step into the attacker’s mindset. In this browser-based serious game, they phish their own colleagues, impersonate the CEO, and sneak past digital and physical defenses. They see exactly how human behavior can break — or uphold — your policy. This isn’t theory. It’s policy in action.

What employees will experience

Each game level mirrors a common risk area your policy addresses. Participants learn through active play how to:

  • Conduct social engineering and OSINT.
  • Send (and detect) phishing and spear phishing emails.
  • Test weak passwords and multi-factor authentication setups.
  • Execute deepfake CEO fraud and voice phishing.
  • Gain physical access through tailgating.
  • Make incident reporting decisions under pressure.

Built for compliance, made for people

Cyber Crime Game strengthens your awareness policy by aligning with NIS2, simulating real behavior, and integrating easily into onboarding and training — all through a multilingual, browser-based platform.

Ideal for:

  • Security leaders ensuring compliance.
  • HR and L&D embedding awareness into culture.
  • Compliance teams tracking behavioral risk.
  • Public sector and high-risk environments.
  • Any organization serious about human-centric security.

It transforms passive instruction into active participation, which leads to better retention, higher engagement, and deeper understanding.

Plus, the emotional impact of a well-crafted game—feeling tricked by a fake CEO email, or catching a colleague’s weak password—sticks far longer than a slide or policy ever will. That’s why gamification doesn’t just inform—it changes behavior.

Yes. NIS2 explicitly requires organizations to train employees in identifying, preventing, and responding to cyber threats.
