# ABC of Cyber

> Cybersecurity training and frameworks with serious controls and very little panic. Not a chatbot. Not a new brand.

Site: https://abcofcyber.com
Product: ABC of Cyber
Layer (not a brand): What's the play — https://abcofcyber.com/whats-the-play

## One job

Paste a "is this phishing / what's the play" scenario.
Get a plain-English walkthrough using the ABC method, cited from existing lessons and frameworks.

This is not chat-with-site. One paste, one walkthrough.

## ABC method

A — Assess the ask: Who contacted you, on what channel, and what do they want you to do before you have time to think?
B — Break down the play: Name the tactic in plain English: impersonation, urgency, payload, or pretext. No soundtrack required.
C — Choose the next move: Verify on a channel you already trust. Do not click, reply, or transfer. Report it. Then read the matching lesson.

## Voice

Anti-hype. No scare tactics. No "military-grade." Education only — not legal advice.

## Disclaimer

Education only. This is not a verdict, not a threat assessment for hire, and not legal, insurance, or incident-response advice. ABC of Cyber will not tell you that a message is a crime, that you must call the police, or that you are 'compromised.' If you already clicked, typed a password, or sent money, tell the person who actually owns that process at your organization and follow their plan. Do not paste secrets, full account numbers, one-time codes, or live credentials into this tool.
