Kobayashi Maru Cybersecurity Learning on CyberRange With Immersive Cloud Based Simulations (9-12)

Engaging students with cybersecurity education can be a scary prospect. How do you give them hands-on learning opportunities when dealing with potentially dangerous code? Field Effect is an Ottawa based cybersecurity company that has created a state of the art online cyber simulation system called CyberRange.  This presentation will give you an opportunity to explore this cloud based immersive simulation software that allows you and your students to get face to face with cyber-attacks without fear in order to better understand the technology. It’s a powerful learning tool and one of the emerging technology pieces used in CyberTitan, Canada’s Student Cybersecurity Competition. This presentation will include access to a variety of cyber-education initiatives being offered (for free!) by ICTC.
