The growth of internet has significantly increased the cybersecurity threat instances. Therefore to equip people with skills to mitigate such attacks, this paper provides a Cybersecurity game-based learning artefact designed using the e-ADR approach. The artefact teaches the Incident Detection and Handling procedures that need to be undertaken in the event of a cybersecurity threat. As per NIST’s guide to malware incident prevention and handling, an incident response process has four major phases: preparation, detection and analysis, containment/eradication/recovery, and post-incident activity. Our gaming artefact delves into the detection and containment phase to design a game that teaches users to detect and then perform containment actions on the cybersecurity threat.
