One of the most critical elements to becoming a cybersecurity analyst involves seeing cyberthreats from the perspective of an attacker or hacker. For this reason, every cyberthreat in Cyber Attack! is presented from the perspective of both the Defender and the Attacker. When you go through the Attacker side of the game, you will see that, compared to the Defender, a lot is different. You have different steps in the process. You will see different avatars who have different motivations and objectives. Your working environment will be different and so will be the kinds of people who support you in your work. Finally, the tools that you use and the decisions that you make are different. But you will get to the end of the game with the kind of challenges and outcomes that a hacker will have.
