Case file 01 · Investigation active
£1,046,250 is missing. What happened to it?
The evidence is incomplete. The explanations don’t quite fit. Investigate the case, decide what you believe happened — and commit to a theory before you know the whole story.
Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2026
A different kind of cybersecurity experience.
We made The Missing Million specially for Cybersecurity Awareness Month 2026. Modelled after BAFTA award-winning puzzle experiences and purpose-built for investment management firms, this isn’t a quiz or a course. It’s a mystery you have to solve.

You’re not here to pass a test.
You’re here to investigate. You’ll work through case material, follow clues, test explanations and decide what the evidence supports. The game is deliberately designed to make you commit before the whole picture is available.
Inside the investigation
Work the case from every angle.
The game moves between different investigative spaces. Each gives you another way to organise what you know, interrogate the evidence and test the story you’re building.
Game mechanic 02
Build your theory
Bring clues together, connect the threads and test competing explanations as your theory takes shape.
Game mechanic 03
Make decisions that matter
Make decisions as the investigation unfolds. Your choices influence how the investigation develops — and the consequences for the company.
Two chapters · One case
Your decisions carry forward.
Chapter 1 asks you to make the call with incomplete evidence. Chapter 2 deals with the consequences of those choices — and reveals the evidence needed to establish what really happened.

Chapter 01
The Paper Trail
Work through the available evidence and reconstruct what you think happened. You’ll find clues, inconsistencies and competing explanations — but not every answer.
At the end, you’ll have to make the call: what happened to the missing million, and how certain are you?

The Final Record
The investigation isn’t over when you submit your theory. The choices you made in Chapter 1 come with you.
New evidence surfaces. Earlier assumptions are tested against facts. This time, you’ll have what you need to establish definitively what happened.

The challenge
You won’t have perfect information.
That’s the point. Real investigations rarely begin with every fact neatly arranged in front of you. You have to decide what matters, what can be trusted and what the evidence actually supports.
01 Pay attention.
02 Question the obvious explanation.
03 Notice what’s missing.
04 Be prepared to commit.
Chapter 1 · The Paper Trail
The evidence is ready.
Your theory isn’t.
Everything you need to begin is already in the case. What you make of it is up to you.
