The build challenge
Learn cybersecurity by building something that has to reason about risk.
Students receive beginner-friendly starter code and realistic fictional examples, then improve a browser-based assistant that can evaluate suspicious messages and explain its decisions.
Analyze
Assign a risk level and explain which details make a message suspicious.
Respond
Recommend safer next steps instead of simply labelling a message unsafe.
Test
Run the assistant against realistic cybersecurity scenarios and refine the result.
