TY - JOUR ID - 29773 AU - Švábenský, Valdemar - Vykopal, Jan PY - 2018 TI - Gathering Insights from Teenagers' Hacking Experience with Authentic Cybersecurity Tools PB - IEEE CY - San Jose, California, USA SN - 9781538611753 KW - active learning KW - capture the flag KW - case study KW - cybersecurity KW - K-12 KW - network security UR - https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8658840 N2 - This Work-In-Progress Paper for the Innovative Practice Category presents a novel experiment in active learning of cybersecurity. We introduced a new workshop on hacking for an existing science-popularizing program at our university. The workshop participants, 28 teenagers, played a cybersecurity game designed for training undergraduates and professionals in penetration testing. Unlike in learning environments that are simplified for young learners, the game features a realistic virtual network infrastructure. This allows exploring security tools in an authentic scenario, which is complemented by a background story. Our research aim is to examine how young players approach using cybersecurity tools by interacting with the professional game. A preliminary analysis of the game session showed several challenges that the workshop participants faced. Nevertheless, they reported learning about security tools and exploits, and 61% of them reported wanting to learn more about cybersecurity after the workshop. Our results support the notion that young learners should be allowed more hands-on experience with security topics, both in formal education and informal extracurricular events. ER -
