Cyber Foundations 2011

Posted by on March 2, 2011

If you are just hearing about the Cyber Foundations 2011 National Competition, you can start preparing for next year. The deadline to enter into this competition was February 25th, 2011. So what is this competition? It is a talent search for high school students with foundational skills in cyber security. The website (https://www.sans.org/cyber-foundations/?utm_source=web-sans&utm_medium=text-ad&utm_content=Featured_Links_Homepage_CyberFoundations_Home&utm_campaign=CyberFoundations_Home_Page&ref=64688) has many great resources and training videos to get the students started.

The competition covers three different modules, each containing a test at the end. Anyone can sign up to preview the first module to get a better understanding of the information covered. For students to compete the registration fee is $75 per student. The information is well put together and captivating.

As the Competition progresses, I hope to provide more information about it here. This is the first year that this has been available so I can’t wait to see how it goes.
