CyberPatriot

CyberPatriot is a team offered by the Ida S. Baker JROTC program, which allows cadets to accumulate valuable cyber defence skills. During CyberPatriot competitions cadets work together to identify and eliminate vulnerabilities in a virtual image. Each vulnerability solved provides points to their team. It not only provides expertise on the computer, but also in teamwork. The cadets must cooperate with one another to find all the vulnerabilities during the allotted time of the competition. Cadets looking to enter a workforce involving cyber defence have a huge head start against others seeking the same career opportunity. The Ida S. Baker CyberPatriot team has seen remarkable success; being acclaimed as the best in the district and amongst the best in the state!

-------------

"CyberPatriot had provided me a widened outlook on the many ways in which our computers are susceptible to malicious software. Before joining the program I was oblivious to all these intrusions. Now that I am consciously aware of all these vulnerabilities within operating systems, I constantly find myself performing precautions to prevent my system from facing these infringements. I have also found myself bonding with my team as I have spent countless hours pursuing these incursions alongside them. Ultimately, I encourage that every cadet try out the program to be granted these wonderful experiences and knowledge that I have acquired." -Cadet CSM Hariprasad
