Ocean’s 99
Synopsis
Ocean’s 99 is a Cyber Security business simulation. A business simulation is an interactive workshop in which teams of people work on challenging issues within a simulated environment. In a simulation each participant will play a role and has specific tasks, responsibilities and authority.
Do you recognise these challenges in Cyber Security?
- Create overall awareness
- Balance between opportunities and risks
- Design an effective cyber security strategy.
A report from an international Cyber Security Protection Alliance concluded that organisations do not have enough awareness and knowledge about Cyber Security revealing a need for ‘more information and education’. An ISACA report ‘2015 global Cyber Security status report’ revealed that only 38% of organisations said their organisations were prepared for sophisticated cyber attacks. Is it any wonder that the latest trends report from the Society of Information management reveal that ‘Security’ is a top scoring issue for CIO’s? This has prompted an explosion in Cyber Security education, certification and training with ‘Resilia’ being the latest offering provided by Axelos.
However, despite the investment in knowledge and skills, it is the attitude and disciplined behaviour of people that pose a significant risk. The latest Cyber Security findings from Cisco also reveal that attackers are shifting their emphasis from ‘…seeking to compromise servers and operating systems to seeking to exploit users ’ (behaviour). This business simulation game aims to support Cyber Security awareness and training programs – helping to change attitudes and behaviour.
Outlines
The owner of the Bank of Tokyo has decided to exhibit three world renowned objects.
The ‘Star of Africa’, the ‘Jewish Bride’ and a ‘Bugatti 59’.
Each of these objects must be transported from their current location to the Tokyo Museum and exhibited for a period of 4 months.
Your challenge is to bring the objects to Tokyo, on time, safely and securely, and to have them exhibited for the planned time.
Each day too late, will cost money and will harm the image of the bank and the museum.
But, be careful.
Ocean’s 99, a criminal organisation, is also very interested in the objects…
Ocean’s 99 and maybe other unforeseen threats can undermine your plans…
