CyberStart Kickoff
October 14, 2022 @ 2:30 pm - 4:30 pm
CyberStart is a program funded by the National Science Foundation (NSF) and developed by the SANS Institute to identify and train the cybersecurity professionals of the future.
CyberStart is part-game, part-training and part-competition. Players take the role of a security professional trying to catch various hackers. Players are presented with a set of challenges at varying levels of difficulty.
Challenges have hints and a field manual to help the player solve them, and players learn as they play. The game is designed for all skills and knowledge levels, including someone who has never considered a field of study or career in technology.
Join us for the CyberStart launch party (with pizza!) on Fri., Oct. 14, from 2:30-4:30 p.m. in Falk 100. Attendees will have the opportunity to try out the CyberStart game and talk with cybersecurity experts from Syracuse University. You can RSVP at the event website below.
