Definition of cybersecurity gamification

Cybersecurity gamification is the use of game elements such as points, challenges, levels, and rewards to increase engagement in cybersecurity learning. It is designed to motivate participation and attention, making security topics more accessible and less abstract. Gamification works best when it supports learning, not when it replaces meaningful experience.

Engagement is the start, not the outcome.
