Overview
PhishNet is a simulated spear phishing attack game that teaches users how to identify and avoid scams through interactive experience. Players must spot traps in emails, IMs, and other messages to succeed (demo only covers emails). Just a few minutes of hands-on practice enhances users' phishing detection skills.
Simulated interface, real-world scenarios
Responsive user feedback + JavaScript for current date
Process
To craft an immersive phishing simulation, I started by storyboarding the narrative and choices in Word. Next I wireframed the user interface in PowerPoint to plan the layout and flow. Graphics were sourced from Canva then customized in PowerPoint and Articulate Storyline to match my brand vision. Logos and color pallets + visuals were designed or enhanced entirely by me.

Tools
PhishNet was created with Articulate Storyline, PPT, and Canva. This course also includes custom JavaScript to keep dates current on emails so they feel real time.
Final Product Thoughts
PhishNet showcases my ability to create an immersive phishing simulation using creative design and skillful implementation. The user interface guides players through the experience smoothly, providing real-world experiences without excessive handholding.
