About the Challenge

You want your friends and relatives to be better equipped to protect themselves from cyberattacks online. But cybersecurity training courses are becoming a grind. We can help. Secureworks wants to see how far you can push your imagination to build any game that teaches any information security idea in a fun and engaging way.

At Secureworks, we protect thousands of organizations with battle-tested, best-in-class cybersecurity solutions. Central to our mission of beating the adversary is educating communities about the critical components of a winning cyber defense. To that end, we’re offering prizes to those who develop games that improve cybersecurity literacy.

Home: How can a game promote personal cybersecurity? Build a project for family, friends, or other non-professional end users.

Work: How can a game promote cybersecurity for organizations? Build a project for professional and workplace end users.

To get you started, we’ve gathered some resources on cybersecurity concepts, training, and tips for strategy. We’re also available to help on the Devpost Discord during office hours so you can bring your most compelling ideas to life.
