Most digital citizenship programs lecture students about risk without ever making the risk feel real. Students hear “don’t click suspicious links,” they nod, and nothing changes.

Hack Attack: Defense works differently. Students don’t read about cyberthreats — they face them. When a Phishing card lands and a student watches their Password card get taken, they aren’t processing a rule. They’re reacting. That reaction, and the conversation it starts, is where the learning happens.

The Library / Program Bundle is built for larger groups: a library program block, an after-school club, a media-center event, or two classes at once.

What’s included

• 8 copies of Hack Attack: Defense — the physical card game, 2–6 players each, so 48 students play at once ($3.52 per student per session)
• Middle & High School Educator’s Facilitation Guide (PDF) — grade-band differentiated for 5–6, 7–8, and 9–12, with a timed 45-minute agenda, a 60-second rules explanation, debrief questions for every card, a student Q&A covering passkeys, smishing, vishing and AI voice cloning, and guidance for when a student shares something concerning
• Facilitator slide deck (PDF) — participant-facing slides for the whole session
• Printable completion certificates and an attendance log

Who it’s for

School and public librarians, after-school and summer program directors, and media specialists running events for mixed-age groups.

What you’ll need

Nothing else. The Quick Start page gets a first-time facilitator ready in about five minutes — no security background required.

What this license covers

One educator, one school. Run it with your own classes as many times as you like, and print what you need for them.

It doesn’t cover reselling these materials or sharing them beyond your school. If you want this across a district, or several educators trained to run it, that’s a different license — email lee@curiousandsecure.com and we’ll sort it out.
