2013 SECCDC Best in Defense
We accomplish these goals by training in simulated environments that allow us to practice successfully securing computer systems utilizing real world strategies and competing in cyber security capture the flag competitions. While we teach offensive techniques these are not meant to be applied maliciously or without permission, they are taught so that defensive solutions are more comprehensive.
CU Cyber meetings are held weekly; see our calendar for times.
We cover security topics and tools that can be applied to your professional and daily life.
Opportunities may arise throughout the year for guests to attend meetings and provide insight on current security issues and events.
There will be several opportunities during the semester for students to travel to security competitions. This will provide students with the experience of competing against peers from other schools.
