Currently in its alpha version, the platform will launch in October 2019 with ten realistic multilingual scenarios. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.megaverse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">MegaVerse<\/a>&#8216;s ambition will be to offer more than 80 scenarios in the coming months, some of which will be developed in collaboration with leading names in the cybersecurity sector.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Major challenges ahead<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to the most recent statistics, 80% of attacks against companies are caused by human vulnerabilities. The MegaVerse software automatically adapts itself to the user&#8217;s level and provides information on his or her&#8217;s current level of knowledge in cybersecurity.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;To our knowledge, there is no cybersecurity awareness training solution on the market similar to ours. That&#8217;s why some giants like Cisco, with two million users on their platform, are interested in it. It is this differentiating factor that has attracted our partner companies, Helvetia, Pictet and a major watchmaking group, who want to apply our scenarios not only to their employees, but also to their customers and suppliers,&#8221; explains C\u00e9cile Maye, CEO of MegaVerse.<\/p>\n<p>According to American figures for 2017, on average, companies are hacked between 50 and 100 times a day. An attack costs $12 million, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ibm.com\/downloads\/cas\/ZYKLN2E3\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ponemon Institute Report<\/a> and for 65% of hacked SMEs, this translates into bankruptcy within 6 months of the attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Based at the Edtech Collider of the EPFL and Microcity in Neuch\u00e2tel, the startup MegaVerse uses artificial intelligence at the heart of its adaptive learning platform.
