Mind Hacker: A Cyber Security Training You’ll Never Forget
Cyber security training doesn’t have to be dull or forgettable. In fact, when done right, it can be one of the most engaging and thought-provoking experiences your team will ever have. That’s exactly what I delivered during a recent keynote performance for Tourism Australia—a session that combined the intrigue of mentalism with essential cyber security insights.
Tourism Australia had already completed a month-long series of cyber security training sessions when they brought me in to deliver the final keynote. They wanted something that would tie it all together, leaving their team not just informed but energized. What followed was an unforgettable hybrid performance called Mind Hacker—a session where cyber security met mentalism, and learning became an experience.
Tourism Australia staff had undergone quite an amount of Cyber Security training, so “Mind Hacker” was the perfect closing to that training. Re-establishing lessons learnt, and highlighting some threats that had not been covered, The Mind Hacker session captivated the room and astonished all attendees, causing their retention rates to escalate due to the entertaining nature of the metaphors and demonstrations given.
What Makes Mind Hacker So Unique?
At first glance, it might seem unusual for a mentalist to deliver a cyber security keynote. But when you dig deeper, the parallels between hacking computers and hacking the human mind are remarkable. Both rely on deception, manipulation, and exploiting vulnerabilities. Cybercriminals use tricks and illusions to gain access to systems, much like how I use mentalism to astonish and engage audiences.
In Mind Hacker, I use these parallels to deliver critical lessons about cyber security in a way that’s fun, engaging, and highly memorable. The session goes beyond traditional presentations, offering:
• Interactive Performances: Astonishing demonstrations that reveal how hackers manipulate trust and behaviour.
• Real-World Insights: Practical knowledge on recognizing and responding to cyber threats like phishing and social engineering.
• High Retention Rates: Engaging content ensures the lessons stick with participants long after the session ends.
From Education to Astonishment - Mind Hacker Cyber Security Infotainment
The core of the Mind Hacker experience lies in its delivery. While the session is packed with valuable information, it’s presented through captivating mentalist performances. These routines act as metaphors for cyber security challenges, allowing the audience to see and feel the concepts in action.
For example:
• Phishing scams are explained through mind-reading routines that demonstrate how easily trust can be manipulated.
• Social engineering tactics are brought to life with illusions that highlight the dangers of misplaced confidence.
• Emerging threats are addressed through storytelling and mentalism, painting a vivid picture of what’s to come.
By combining entertainment with education, Mind Hacker transforms dry, technical topics into an experience that resonates deeply with audiences.
The Feedback from Tourism Australia
After weeks of traditional cyber security training, Tourism Australia’s team was ready for something different. Mind Hacker delivered exactly that.
Attendees described the session as “eye-opening,” “highly engaging,” and “unlike anything they’d experienced before.” For those who had already undergone training, it was the perfect final touch—reinforcing lessons in a way that made them unforgettable. For those new to cyber security concepts, it provided a powerful introduction to the risks and challenges of today’s digital landscape.

• It captivates the audience: People remember what excites them. By engaging both their minds and emotions, the session ensures retention.
• It’s relevant and practical: The content is tailored to address current and emerging cyber threats, giving participants actionable takeaways.
