Cyber Bastions is a simulation-decision game that provides cybersecurity training through gamification, employing deliberate gaming mechanisms to activate, motivate, and engage selected participants. Participants, organized into teams, design a security system for a hypothetical organization’s IT environment and respond to various cyber threats. The game encompasses diverse scenarios, including those inspired by real campaigns conducted by cybercriminals. Using specially prepared cards representing security measures from organizational (e.g., SOC, CERT), procedural (e.g., incident management procedure), and technical (e.g., SIEM) domains, each team operates within a predefined budget, adjustable during the game. The simulation, structured as a Tabletop Exercise, evaluates effectiveness through a web application managed by the game master.
