Cyber Champs. The Symbol-U Gamification - How does it work?
If you're a user of Symbol University, the Symbol Security User Portal, and you have Gamification turned 'ON' for your company, you'll note that there is a leaderboard and scoring system that ranks the top 'Cyber Champs' and details a number of points on the header of your page. This number of points is calculated based on different actions that you do within the Symbol University platform and in your other Awareness Training Activities including Domain and Email Threat Alerting, Phishing Simulation, "Report a Phish" Button accuracy, and other actions as well.
There are many ways to earn or lose points, so it means that your score will be calculated from all your actions, acquiring Positive AND Negative points within your company.
