01 · LEARN

Understand the concept

CIA Triad
Threat vs vulnerability
Exploit and risk
Types of attackers
Ethical and legal boundaries
Why this matters

Cyber security decisions become clearer when students can separate assets, threats, vulnerabilities, impact and controls.

02 · VISUALIZE

See what happens internally

Interactive visualization loads here.
03 · PRACTICAL

Perform the activity

  1. Classify prepared incidents as confidentiality, integrity or availability issues.
  2. Identify the threat, vulnerability and possible impact in each scenario.
  3. Discuss one preventive control for every incident.
Workshop safety: Activities involving scanning, web vulnerabilities or security testing must be performed only on the assigned training target or intentionally vulnerable lab.
04 · CODE / COMMANDS

Read and understand the working example

print("CyberForge: classify the incident before choosing a control")

This example is shown for guided learning. Real host/network execution is reserved for the isolated cyber-range stage.

05 · CHALLENGE

Prove your understanding

Scenario: A student database is exposed. Which CIA principle is affected, what was the weakness, and which control would reduce the risk?
