"Learn while you play and play while you learn"!! I remember this caption on a video game that I had in my childhood. I came across this brilliant collection of scenario-based cloud and infrastructure-related security card games today. They call it #BackdoorsandBreaches It is fun to play as a team and investigate the scenarios. I'd recommend to give it a try. link: https://lnkd.in/etmGcX4x Please comment if you have a better collection of such training tools to make security learning a fun and interesting activity. #Security #CloudSecurity #InfrastructureSecurity
