About Us
The Cyber*Sci security challenge is a series of regional team competitions hosted across Canada for university and college students interested in cyber security as a career. Regional winners compete in the Canadian national finals, and top teams go on to represent Canada at international events.
The challenging excitment of the competitions draws the best candidates into the profession and fills Canada’s growing need for highly competent professionals in cyber security.
