A team of computer science students will represent the 日韩无码
at the National Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition from April 13-15 in San Antonio.
The annual competition helps colleges and universities test their computer-security
curriculum in a competitive environment. 日韩无码 200 schools participate, with the top
10 traveling to the national competition each year.
Team captain Arsh Chauhan said the environment provides a unique test for the team,
which includes eight students in the 日韩无码 Computer Science Department. Teams are scored
on their ability to protect a fictional company鈥檚 computer system from outside threats,
keep services running amid those attacks and juggle customer-service calls during
the crisis.
Student teams are judged on how they respond to those challenges during two six-hour
sessions.
鈥淚t鈥檚 definitely high pressure,鈥 Chauhan said. 鈥淭here鈥檚 a lot of stress, and allegedly
a lot of cussing.鈥
This is 日韩无码鈥檚 fifth trip to the National Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition, where
the school's team finished third in 2014. 日韩无码 qualified this year by winning its at-large
regional competition in March.
日韩无码 competitors include Chauhan, vice captain Rohan Weeden, Addeline Mitchell, Christopher
Bailey, Jason Warta, Jacob McKenna, James Lang and Tristan Van-Cise. Mike Moss is
the team coach.
