Riskio Game Boards
The game boards structure decision‑making and help teams visualise how threats and defences interact within an organisation.
Boards can be themed around fictional organisations or real‑world environments. See Game Scenarios.
Figure 1 - University Fees Office Game Board
Suitable for physical security vulnerabilities.
Needs little explanation.
Requires more thought to find possible technical vulnerabilities.
Found in games testing to be liked by both technical and non-technical players.
Comments: Supported with case study explaining office processes. Most understood by senior managers and could use actual office plans.
Figure 2 - University Fees Office Network Diagram
Good for technical vulnerabilities.
The network diagram could be used as a side-b to office diagram game board.
Comments: For some players need to explain network components and what they do.
Figure 3 - University Fees Office Data Flow Diagram
Best for critical services to identify low-level technical vulnerabilities.
Practical as Microsoft EoP Game to conduct threat modelling as part of the design phase of software projects.
Comments: We needed to explain the diagram to the players unless players created a diagram as per the EoP game.
