<\/strong><\/a>With\u00a0<\/strong>90% of people overestimating<\/a>\u00a0their\u00a0cybersecurity\u00a0abilities,\u00a0Kaspersky Gamified Assessment Tool is designed to not only change employee behavior and awareness, but also to assist\u00a0chief information officers and HR departments measuring workers\u2019 cyber skills, and provide their teams with a relevant education environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the game, employees receive points on the decisions they make during commonly encountered situations occurring while working remotely -at home or while travelling- and working in the office. They are asked to assess whether their actions carry cyber risks, and how confident they are in their assumptions.

One in ten (11%) of test participants[1]<\/sup><\/a> were awarded a Certificate of Excellence, meaning they gave correct responses, scored over 90% of possible points. Most users \u2013 61% \u2013 achieved an \u201caverage\u201d result ranging from 82% to 90% points, while 28% could not prove sufficient knowledge of cybersecurity knowledge, scoring less than 75%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gamified Assessment Tool users choose green chips if they think the scenario is safe, or red if they think it\u2019s dangerous. The number of chips indicates how confident they are in their answer.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Gamified Assessment Tool covers six security domains: passwords and accounts, email, web browsing, social networks & messenger, PC security and mobile devices. The web browsing topic appeared to be the most difficult for users \u2013 just 24% defined actions correctly.  Scenarios tied to mobile devices were least complex \u2013 43% of employees made no mistakes in identifying cyber risks in these scenarios. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Gamified Assessment Tool is included in the \u2018engagement phase\u2019 of our Security Awareness Portfolio. It precedes the training stage in the Kaspersky Automated Security Awareness Platform, allowing employees to get clearer motivation for learning and helping organizations find out which educational program best fits their workers\u2019 specific needs.\u201d\u00a0\u2013\u00a0<\/em>comments Alexander Lunev, Product Manager,\u00a0Security Awareness & Academic Affairs at Kaspersky. \u201cHowever, even the best possible result achieved in the game is not an indicator that a user needs no further advanced training or periodic knowledge refreshment. The adversarial methods can change, and a person\u2019s vigilance may weaken. That is why we also make sure that the learning and reinforcement parts of our product are interesting for all learners of all levels.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
