Celebrate five years of cybersecurity innovation with a competition designed to challenge your skills and ignite your creativity! Now in its 5th year, this event focuses on the critical intersection of infrastructure, social engineering, and AI—three pillars reshaping the threat landscape.
Critical infrastructure like power grids, transportation networks, and healthcare systems is increasingly connected, making it more vulnerable to sophisticated attacks. Social engineering exploits human trust to breach defenses, often serving as the gateway for such threats. Meanwhile, AI, while a powerful tool for innovation, can also be weaponized to automate attacks, craft convincing phishing schemes, and outpace traditional defenses. Together, these factors create a complex web of vulnerabilities that demand innovative thinking and technical expertise.
This competition is not about AI tools themselves, but rather how social engineering is influenced by the use of AI tools. The competition seeks to engage students’ critical thinking by focusing on issues of efficiency, validity, quality, and automation when it comes to using these tools in the context of social engineering and AI.
Join us in celebrating five years of empowering the next generation of cyber defenders—your journey into the future of cybersecurity starts here!
