KnowBe4 announced the launch of its new
cybersecurity game 'Hack-A-Cat', available on Roblox, one of the most popular gaming platforms on the market today.
The game is KnowBe4's first entry into the Roblox platform and is aimed
to educate young people about cyber threats and cybersecurity best
practices.
In 'Hack-A-Cat', up to four players can take on the role of either a cat
or a mouse to compete head-to-head to collect tokens and reach their
goals. The cats' mission is to ship their tuna before the timer runs
out, while the mice work to sabotage the cats' efforts using real
security hacking tactics. Regardless of their role, the game teaches
players vital cybersecurity skills via lessons on email safety,
recognizing cyber threats and more.
"We thought our new 'Hack-A-Cat' game was a unique opportunity to
inspire interest in cybersecurity for a younger audience using Roblox,"
said Stu Sjouwerman, CEO of KnowBe4. "Cybersecurity education is crucial
at every age, especially for young people who spend a lot of time
online exposed to security threats they may not even be aware of.
'Hack-A-Cat' is a game and tool all-in-one, as it fosters cybersecurity
awareness and educates players to safely navigate the digital world."
