CyberPatriot High School Cyberdefense Competition
Sponsored by the Air Force Association, the Cyberpatriot Competition is designed to give hands on exposure to the foundations of cyber security. CyberPatriot is not a hacking competition. CyberPatriot's goal is to excite students about (STEM) education. In each competition round, students are provided one to three Windows or Linux virtual machines. These machines contain several vulnerabilities, and students are given a set amount of time to clean and secure the images. The top 12 teams of all three rounds compete in the National Championships in Baltimore, MD.
CSAW RED Team competition - at NYU tandon school of engineering
