• Backup or Lose It — Knowledge Check

  Three times you sat at that desk with a clock running, decided what existed nowhere else, and found out afterwards what survived. This assessment asks the same decisions in writing: what a backup taken at 22:00 does and does not contain, why a synchronised folder is not a second copy, where company work is allowed to live, and which copy a recovery actually restores from.

• Breach Breaker — Knowledge Check

  Review the security ideas behind the toolkit: identity checks, containment, patching, recovery and incident triage. This assessment covers all ten worlds and is separate from your match score. Review the world lessons before taking it.

• Clean Desk Challenge — Knowledge Check

  You closed up three rooms at Cedarline Group: securing paper, locking screens, putting badges out of sight and leaving the mug alone. This assessment asks the same judgement in writing — what a classification label decides, why a bin is not disposal, what a badge really is, and which surfaces in an office are read by everybody who walks past.

• Data Dash — Knowledge Check

  Practice checking addresses, protecting accounts and data, recognising scams, using AI thoughtfully and looking after yourself and others online. This optional knowledge check is separate from your runner score.

• Find the Fake Login — Knowledge Check

  You judged twenty login flows without being allowed to judge the logo: address bars, certificates, the password manager, MFA prompts, OAuth consent, QR posters and device codes. This assessment asks the same investigations in writing — where a hostname really ends, what a valid certificate actually proves, why a manager that will not fill is evidence, and when the right answer is to stop and open the portal yourself.

• Ghost Protocol — Knowledge Check

  Apply the cybersecurity decisions behind Ghost Protocol: verify suspicious requests, protect identities, contain incidents, recover safely, and handle sensitive information responsibly. This knowledge check measures practical judgement independently from tactical battle results.

• INSIDER — Knowledge Check

  You spent a workday answering everything the same four ways — do it, say no, check first, report it — while somebody on the floor ran an attack chain through the doors, the desks and the payments. This assessment asks the same judgement in writing: what a held door costs, what a found drive actually is, which address a work password belongs to, and why refusing everything is not security either.

• Password Builder — Knowledge Check

  You locked five vaults, from 36 bits to 78, by catching the pieces worth having and letting the traps fall past. This assessment asks the same decisions in writing: what a bit actually costs an attacker, why four unrelated words beat any clever respelling, what one leaked password does to every account that shares it, and where a manager and a second step take over from memory.

• Phishing Detective 3D — Knowledge Check

  You worked a suspected account compromise from the office floor: a real supplier mailbox, a consent screen, a burst of sign-in prompts and a €47,850 invoice with one field changed. This assessment asks what each of those pieces of evidence actually proves, what an unexpected payment change should trigger, and which channel counts as an independent one.

• QR Hunt — Knowledge Check

  You walked the office and decided, twelve times, whether to open a code, ignore it or report it. This assessment asks the same judgement in writing: where a link really leads, what a padlock does and does not promise, and what to do with a sticker that appeared overnight.

• Ransomware Reaction — Knowledge Check

  You sat at a desk while something quietly took your files apart, and every run was scored on how early you noticed, how fast you got the machine off the network and how clearly you told somebody. This assessment asks the same things in writing: what the first fifteen minutes look like, why the cable comes out before anything else, and what the person on the other end of the phone actually needs from you.

• Ransomware Survival — Knowledge Check

  You ran AcmeWorks for thirty business days on a budget that did not refill, and the campaign that arrived was assembled from everything you deferred. This assessment asks the same reasoning in writing: which copy survives an attacker holding your administrator password, what a restore rehearsal proves that a green backup job does not, what monitoring changes and what it does not, and what every option on the last two days actually costs.

• Secure the Office — Knowledge Check

  You swept an office, found the risks, paid for the ones that mattered and sent a report. This assessment asks the same judgement in writing: what an unlocked screen, a written password, an unknown USB stick and an open storage door actually cost, which of two findings you fix when you cannot fix both, and what a useful report says about the ones you left behind.

• Secure Your Home Office — Knowledge Check

  You walked a flat where the company's controls stop at the front door and fixed what a neighbour, a flatmate or a rushed morning could turn into an incident. This assessment asks the same decisions in writing: the router you own, the laptop that is not yours to lend, the caller who knows your manager's name, the prompts that will not stop, and where a work file is allowed to live.

• Security Tower Defense — Knowledge Check

  You spent a fixed budget across fifteen rounds, matching controls to the attacks that were actually coming and watching what walked past the ones you had already bought. This assessment asks the same thing in writing: which control stops which step, what a perimeter cannot see, and why identity, endpoint, network, monitoring and recovery each have to be paid for separately.

• The Social Engineer — Knowledge Check

  You spent a day at the badge door, the desk, the printer and the phone, deciding which requests to help with and which to check first. This assessment asks the same thing in writing: what verification is for, how to run it without accusing anybody, and which of the polite, reasonable, awkward moments in a working day are the attack.

• Wi-Fi Picker — Knowledge Check

  You walked a café, a gate, a hotel lobby, an expo hall and a branch office, and chose six times how to get online. This assessment asks the same judgement in writing: what a network name proves, how a look-alike is spotted, what a portal is allowed to ask you for, why a certificate warning on enterprise Wi-Fi is a stop sign, and when the right answer is your own hotspot.
