Cybersecurity Education for Middle School
No age is too young to start learning more about cybersecurity.
Cyber STEM Camps
CySTEM camps are held throughout the state, using hands-on activities to investigate topics like cryptography, password cracking, artificial intelligence, and geotagging. These camps are led by college cybersecurity faculty and provide a great introduction to cybersecurity.
CyberMontana supports these camps to ensure that young people are inspired to utilize their talents in cybersecurity. This is critical to the future of our country’s national and economic security as we become even more reliant on cyber-based technology in every aspect of our daily lives.
