Cybersecurity, which encompasses measures and practices to safeguard digital resources, faces constant challenges due to the evolution of threats and technologies.
Therefore, staying updated and working collaboratively becomes essential in this field.
To address the need for knowledge in computer security, Xbox (Microsoft) and Minecraft have designed a free cybersecurity course with a creative and playful approach using the famous game Minecraft.
The course is aimed at beginners, so no prior knowledge in the area is necessary.
It focuses on three fundamental pillars:
- Digital Identity: The importance of protecting our online identity and the need to keep personal information secure is addressed.
- Online Security: Participants will learn how to prevent and deal with potential risks and threats while navigating the Internet.
- Privacy: Best practices for maintaining privacy in an increasingly exposed digital environment will be explored.
The course content is presented in an interactive and creative way. Players (students) will have the opportunity to choose their own adventure.
The course’s approach also includes programming concepts, allowing participants to learn problem-solving skills and overcome obstacles within the story they develop in the game.
This course is ideal for cybersecurity teachers at the secondary education level or equivalent, as well as for educators and students interested in the field of computer science and programming.
No previous knowledge of cybersecurity is required, but basic computer skills and access to a computer with a stable internet connection are recommended, as the content is offered online.
