Cyber Welfare Third Level: Full Autonomy and Mastery
Reaching the Third Level means having completed the transformation from a user to a true expert in their own security. At this stage, technology holds no more dangerous secrets for you: you possess the intellectual and technical tools to navigate any scenario, even the most complex, with success and security.
Your protection is now proactive. You don’t just react to threats or follow standard procedures; you are capable of anticipating risks, critically analysing new technologies, and adapting your defences in real-time. You are the expert captain of your digital ship.
What the Third Level Is: Operational Excellence
The Third Level indicates that you possess high-profile knowledge and skills. You are capable of operating successfully in full autonomy, making strategic decisions about managing your data, privacy, and security without supervision.
In summary: You have achieved full digital maturity. You are capable of critically evaluating every situation, proactively mitigating risks, and expertly handling even the most advanced protection tools.
The Third Level Profile
The user who positions themselves in this excellence bracket is characterised by a triad of maximum-level values:
| Dimension | Current Status | Meaning |
| Skills | Expert | You manage information critically, systematically, and with absolute technical proficiency. |
| Awareness | Advanced | You proactively evaluate and mitigate risks; your vision positively influences those around you. |
| Behavior | Conscious | You act with a critical spirit, adapting your actions to specific situations with initiative and foresight. |
The Defining Traits: Vision and Proactivity
At the Third Level, your digital posture is defined by:
- Critical Analysis: You know how to evaluate the deep implications of every digital service, from contractual clauses to data flow management.
- Proactive Mitigation: You don’t wait for a problem to appear; you have already implemented countermeasures to neutralise it at its inception.
- Adaptability: You can reconfigure your defence strategy as soon as new risks or changes in the digital landscape emerge.
Your Goal: Becoming a “Master”
To move from the Third Level to the Expert Level of the Framework (the highest grade), you must take the final step: sharing.
- Become a Reference: Transform your individual mastery into value for the community by actively helping others protect themselves.
- Develop the Final Critical Spirit: Adopt a philosophical and social vision of technology to help build a safer digital world for everyone.
