Fox Crypto is proud to announce its commitment as a silver sponsor of HackShield, a platform focused on teaching children (ages 8-12) about cybersecurity. HackShield provides a gamified learning experience where children take on the role of cyber agents and learn how to protect themselves and their environment from digital threats.
Willemijn Rodenburg from Fox Crypto explains why this partnership is so important: “At Fox Crypto, we believe that a secure future starts with building knowledge in the youth. By equipping children with tools and knowledge to combat digital threats, we are investing in the next generation of defenders of state secrets, defense systems, and critical infrastructure.”
Beyond gaming: Engaging young minds
HackShield is more than just a game. It is a platform that motivates children by awarding medals and actively teaching them about protecting digital environments. “Teaching goes beyond the game component. We aim to engage with children on important topics such as recognizing a strong password and understanding the risks of weak passwords that can easily be hacked,” says Willemijn.
This partnership allows Fox Crypto to play an active role in corporate social responsibility within the cybersecurity space. It’s about knowledge and expertise through lessons and workshops for youth. Fox Crypto collaborates closely with local schools, municipalities, and the police to raise awareness about the dangers of the digital age.
We are always looking for schools that are interested in participating in this initiative. If you would like to help the next generation of cyber agents, please contact us.
