Have you had a chance to play "Cybersecurity Ops: Terminal," the new video game that simulates the nail-biting experience of a cyberattack at an international airport? If not (or if you've played already and want to give it another go), check it out at
https://www.ibm.com/security/digital-assets/cybersecurity-ops/terminal/.
As you'll quickly discover, Terminal's mission is to immerse cybersecurity professionals, your IT and business leadership colleagues, and the general public in a fictional yet realistic cyberattack. The game seeks to help players understand that an effective response to a cyber breach requires a cross-functional team, robust security technology, and incident response plans that have been practiced and optimized.
Terminal puts you in the hot seat for three different roles: an IT analyst, a manager, and an executive. Each role has different responsibilities and increasingly difficult decisions to make as the cyberattack escalates and the attackers begin taking control of the airport's systems and then holding those systems hostage with ransomware.
Your job is to protect the airport systems, prevent the cybercriminals from taking control, and respond decisively to minimize the impact and keep the airport running. Are you up to the challenge? Find out by playing
"Cybersecurity Ops: Terminal" today!
