Fun and skill-building for school children, teenagers and young adults to test and learn lateral thinking, ingenuity and perseverance. We want to inspire and encourage pupils and students from all backgrounds to consider a career in national security, law enforcement, investigations and cyber security
The concept of public challenges and puzzles by intelligence agencies has a long tradition and Artefaktum picks up this idea and pushes its opening to the public to inspire the next generation of investigators, cryptologists and mathematicians and analysts for the profession. Detecting, finding, collecting, and analyzing data and information, some of which is hidden or publicly available, is part of Artefaktum’s everyday job. We will now regularly publish kid-friendly tasks and puzzles that address the seven disciplines of languages, engineering, codebreaking, analysis, mathematics, coding, and cybersecurity – all key skills needed by national security and law enforcement agencies to keep our country safe.
Whilst the mPower challenges are designed for schools and colleges, we’re also encouraging the wider public to take on the riddles and puzzles to pit their wits against our puzzlers.
