Cyber Escape Room Startup Travels 150k Miles in October to Celebrate Security With Clients and Their Employees

2019 National Cyber Security Awareness Month (NCSAM) Recap

The Living Security Team

National Cyber Security Awareness Month or NCSAM is an opportunity each year for organizations around the world to celebrate security, spread cyberhygiene and energize positive culture change across the enterprise.

Living Security - a startup out of Austin, TX - traveled 150k+ miles in October to celebrate NCSAM with 85 clients across North America, Asia and Europe. Instead of "death-by-powerpoint," Living Security's CSO, Drew Rose, said they re-imagine security awareness for people using cybersecurity-themed escape rooms. 

The Living Security Escape Room is an immersive team experience designed to teach security concepts in a game-based learning environment. Instead of participants "solving their way out" of traditional escape rooms, participants learn to "secure their way out" of Living Security escape rooms by solving security-themed puzzles and interacting with a custom curriculum. 

Dir. of Intelligence & Content, Graham Westbrook, said, "Some vendors make security relevant; some make it funny. Only Living Security makes it fun. It is so rewarding to see people smile, cheer and high-five in the name of cybersecurity."

In addition to training over 12,500 people (in-person) in October, Living Security also launched a new, Hollywood-style video series for its online platform users who reside within Fortune 500, Defense and SMB organizations. 

Living Security would like to extend a special thanks to their client partners, advisors, team members and families for helping to make the busy October possible: "How lucky we are, as security evangelists and friends, to share such moments with you every October. It is truly a joy. We don’t take it for granted. Every laugh is a metric ... and it is continually a blessing to partner with you to deliver the best security awareness training possible."
