Cyber Patriot

CyberPatriot is a competition that tests the ability of the students to defend a simulated corporate network from external hostile attacks.  But, it is far more than just a competition.  It is designed to educate and motivate your cadets to become the cyber defenders the nation needs while promoting Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM).

The next generation of cyber defenders will compete in qualifying rounds in the fall to vie for one of the coveted slots to travel to Orlando for the CyberPatriot II National Championship, scheduled for 18 February 2011.  The finals will be in Washington DC on 1-2 April 2011

Next Competition starts at 9 on Saturday October 23,2010
