Cybersecurity awareness game

Traditional cybersecurity training often falls flat—dry slides, low engagement, and minimal real-world impact. But Phantom’sLab changes that. It turns cybersecurity awareness into a realistic, interactive experience tailored for law enforcement professionals.

One of the most dangerous threats? “Commissioner fraud.” Using deepfake technology and AI-generated voice phishing (vishing), cybercriminals impersonate high-ranking officers to manipulate internal staff. One realistic message is all it takes to trigger an unauthorized transfer, leak classified information, or damage trust between departments.

What participants will face

Social engineering and OSINT research.

Phishing email analysis and detection.

Password puzzles & MFA bypass scenarios.

CEO fraud via audio deepfake.

Tailgating and physical access.

Decision-making under time pressure.

In Phantom’sLab, you become the attacker—your mission is to hack your own police department for ransom. You’ll manipulate your colleagues, exploit trust, and discover vulnerabilities from the inside out. All within a safe, controlled game environment.Want to make your organisation truly resilient and turn cybersecurity awareness into training your team actually enjoys?

The game

The game features 8 interactive levels and a final awareness exam. Each level immerses officers in realistic scenarios—customized to your police department. Below are a few examples of how we tailor the game to reflect your daily operations and environment.

  • #1 – Reconnaissance & Research: Start by investigating your own colleagues. Why? Because every officer leaves a digital footprint—on LinkedIn, social media, or public databases. How much can be uncovered about your team online?
  • #3 – Phishing: We simulate phishing emails using real-looking formats like: joris@your-policeunit.com — combined with realistic internal requests. The goal? To test how your team reacts under pressure.
  • #6 – Command & Control: Tailgating becomes personal. We use actual photos or floor plans of your station or HQ to show how easily someone could gain unauthorized access — simply by following an officer inside.
  • #7 – Actions on objectives: What if your chief of police sent a voice message asking for immediate action? Using AI and deepfake technology, we bring leadership figures to life. Can your team detect the threat before it’s too late?
