摘要

This work addresses the implementation of an educational tool focused on cybersecurity for audiences with limited knowledge of the subject. Utilizing Raspberry Pi boards, the tool simulates phishing attacks, keylogger usage, and other cyber threat techniques, aiming to teach users how to identify and protect themselves against these risks. Four interactive scenarios were developed to convey core cybersecurity concepts through firsthand learning experiences. A trial involving 250 participants demonstrated that integrating technology in cybersecurity education fosters engagement, critical thinking, and practical skill application. Participants interacted with the device in a secure environment, allowing them to apply theoretical knowledge in simulated situations, thereby enhancing their ability to face real-world digital risks. The results underscore the potential of Raspberry Pi-based methods in improving cybersecurity awareness and mitigating threats, highlighting the value of affordable and accessible technological solutions in educational settings. This practical approach addresses educational gaps in cybersecurity, particularly in regions where resources are limited, and emphasizes the importance of initiative-taking measures in digital safety education.
