Virtual Vigilante is created for teens to educate them about cyber hygiene. App stores do contain cybersecurity apps, but they are often made for adults aiming to get a certification. The formats of these apps are too wordy and are not engaging enough for teenagers who have short attention spans. Virtual Vigilante aims to be uniquely geared toward a younger audience with more than one mode of learning: fun, game-like learning, and more formal learning with fewer game-style features. Virtual Vigilante will help teens stay alert and vigilant about their cybersecurity!
What sets Virtual Vigilante apart from the competition is how users have unique avatar creation! The app's approach from boring classrooms to interactive learning will keep users on their toes.Â
Lost? Our FAQ is a great place to chat and get answers with other heroes about common questions! Can't find the answer there? The Hero Support Hotline is available for users to contact HQ if they need a password reset or have any questions about cyber hygiene.
An interactive way of learning. This mode offers a more engaging way of interaction with the content, as users can take their own Vigilante with them on their learning adventure and fight against villains.
A more traditional way of learning. This learning mode is available for those who prefer to "go by the book". Don't worry, you can still take your Virtual Vigilante with you in this mode!
Virtual Vigilante differs from other products as it was designed to stand out from anything currently on the market. As mentioned, we aim to spread awareness about cyber hygiene and we chose a superhero theme to spread a righteous and heroic image. Being a hero can help users be more confident in saving and securing themselves, as well as others around them.
