Getting Gamers Interested in Cyber Security


Today I started a new mission - increase interest in cyber security through gaming.

It's a bold move - a lot of the cyber security related games aren't commonly streamed. But then maybe that's a niche that needs to be further explored.

For starters, I'm going to stream "Thief Simulator", which focuses on physical security, as well as "Uplink", which is a very unique game that simulates hacking computers.

As a Cyber Security professional who has worked my entire career from a defensive perspective, these games will give me and others a new look at security concepts and practices.

I invite you to come give it a like over on Facebook and see what neat adventures unfold!
