Your state
Why it matters.
Your accounts are your money, your identity and your private life. Most break-ins use recycled passwords and missing 2FA — both fixable in an evening.
What success looks like.
- Unique passwords in a password manager for primary accounts.
- Two-factor authentication active on the accounts that matter most.
- Five phishing messages correctly identified, with the tells explained.
The component skills.
Typical mistakes.
- — Reusing one strong password everywhere.
- — Approving a 2FA push without checking what asked for it.
- — Trusting a message because it looks official instead of checking the sender's real address.
Practise — activities that produce artifacts.
Set up the password manager ~40 min
Install a reputable password manager, change your three most important accounts to unique generated passwords, and keep the master phrase safe.
Artifact: Accounts changed (list them — never the passwords)
Phishing-spotting drill ~30 min
Collect five suspicious messages (real or from known phishing examples) and for each write the tell: sender address, urgency, link destination, ask.
Artifact: Five messages with the tells explained
Missions — do it for real.
Mentors for this capability.
Matched from real, opted-in DISHA members through the Mentor Intelligence Network — with their trust states shown as stored. Source-listed is not the same as verified.
No opted-in mentors match this capability yet — none are invented. See the Mentors view or the full directory.
How assessment works.
Every submission gets a transparent first-pass against the mission's rubric — what was looked for and what was observed. Verified state requires a real review; the system never upgrades self-reported evidence on its own.
accuracy
Concrete numbers, units and exact values instead of vague amounts
completeness
All parts of the task covered — nothing skipped or assumed away
safety_discipline
Safety steps named and done in order; limits respected
evidence_quality
An observable artifact: worksheet, receipt, photo reference, recording note
self_awareness
Honest signals: what you noticed, what was hard, what you'd change
Accepted evidence: mission_submission, mentor_review, observed_application, work_sample.
Stated plainly — what this doesn't do
- — Submissions are private, self-reported evidence — they never become verified without a real review.
- — Mentor review for capabilities arrives in a later phase of this module.
