01The brief

Security awareness training that people actually finish. Most phishing training is a slide deck people click through once a year; Phish Guard Cards turns it into a game — short rounds, instant feedback, something to earn — so spotting a phishing email becomes a habit instead of an annual chore.

02What was built

An account-based web app: realistic phishing emails presented as digital scratch cards, where scratching reveals the red flags; XP and tokens for every completed scenario; achievements and progression tiers from Bronze to Platinum; streaks, detailed stats and a leaderboard so every learner can see their progress. A single-page front end with a Node/Express service behind it, hosted on Replit.
