Security Advisor Alliance: Our objective is to connect students and educators with a cross-section of cyber professionals to provide perspective, access, and advice on the various ways to contribute to our growing space. Each tour stop serves as the start of a relationship with security professionals in your local community who are committed to ensuring every student interested in cybersecurity has a clear path forward. In an effort to engage students and reinforce key cybersecurity concepts we have developed a Capture the Flag Game (CTF). The CTF gamifies cyber education and provides a fun way for security professionals and students to connect around cybersecurity. Students will be asked to answer a wide range of challenges, many of which are designed to teach analytical thinking skills, team work and creativity.
