Solutions / Schools and municipalities
Cybersecurity is a basic skill. Let's teach it like one.
Pupils grow up online, with social media, games, payment cards and accounts from an early age. Scammers know it, and AI is making their attacks more convincing every month. Simblia gives schools and municipalities a ready-made way to build digital immunity, without teachers having to become security experts.
The reality schools face
Less screen, more understanding.
Danish schools are being asked to do two things at once: become more analogue, and teach pupils to understand technology, its possibilities and its risks. Children still live online after school, and the threats they meet there are growing faster with AI.
A turning point after two decades of digitalisation
Public schools are set to become mobile-free, with new rules expected from the 2026/2027 school year. Fewer screens in the classroom doesn't mean less digital life for children. The understanding has to be taught deliberately.
Technology understanding is becoming part of school
It is being built into Danish and maths, and a new elective is planned for the coming school years. Security and fraud awareness belong naturally in it.
Children are targets
Scams on games, social media and messaging, account takeovers and fake profiles, now amplified by AI. One in ten Danish children aged 9–17 has been threatened or extorted online, and one in four has been contacted by an adult they did not know.

Security is on leadership's agenda
Attacks, data breaches and AI have moved cybersecurity from the IT department to school boards and municipal leadership.
Learning outcomes
What your pupils will be able to do
Simblia is designed to achieve and measure these outcomes through short tests and Scam Lab scenarios, so you can report progress upward.
- Recognise typical scams and threats in messages, games and social media
- Protect their accounts and digital identity, and never share codes or MitID
- Pause and check before they click, pay or share
- Spot fake profiles and pressure tactics
- Know what to do, and who to tell, when something feels wrong
- Understand how their own safety protects family, classmates and school
