You are part of the defence: Learn how to stop scammers
In 2024, 274,000 Danes were exposed to digital fraud, and evidence suggests that cybercrime is continuing to rise with the global rollout of artificial intelligence. This concerning trend has prompted IDA Forsikring and Campfire Security, cybersecurity experts, to collaborate to inform and educate Danes about #cyberhygiene.
As a member, you will gain access to the educational platform Bonfire, where you can learn about the latest techniques that fraudsters use to deceive individuals and steal money and sensitive information. You will also have the opportunity to practice various methods and tools to protect yourself.
Research indicates that gamification is one of the most effective methods for learning about cybersecurity. Consequently, the platform is designed as a digital escape room, allowing you to gain substantial knowledge while enjoying the process. You'll be engaged as you work to solve challenges.

You Are the Frontline: Your Behaviour Determines Whether You Get Scammed
With this new partnership, IDA Forsikring is taking a significant step toward creating a safer and more cyber-secure environment in Denmark. Digital fraud doesn't just affect your neighbours; the statistics clearly show that it can impact anyone.
"It's essential that you, in your own home, become better at protecting your family, your property, and your corner of the internet," says Grit Munk, Head of Digital Policy at IDA.
This message is echoed by Campfire Security, an organisation that provides cybersecurity education and training to individuals, businesses, and organisations.
"The cyber threat against Denmark is very high, and unfortunately, ordinary people face these dangers as well, often being deceived and scammed in various ways," says Professor Jens Myrup Pedersen, co-founder of Campfire Security.
"We are all part of the first line of defence. Our everyday behaviour can make the difference between whether scammers succeed or fail in their attacks," adds Jens Myrup Pedersen.
The collaboration with IDA Forsikring aims to raise awareness about the cyber threats that private individuals face. As an IDA member, you can use your IDA login to access free training through Campfire Security's online platform.
