Deloitte has been named the title sponsor of 2011 National Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition.
The Institute for Cyber Security-Center for Infrastructure Assurance and Security (ICS-CIAS) at The University of Texas at San Antonio founded the NCCDC in 2005 to develop a pipeline of talented college students interested in pursuing cyber security careers. In just five short years, the competition has certainly lived up to that mission.
“We’re very happy to support the National Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition. The competition is a great opportunity for the students to experience ‘real life’ cyber challenges in a positive, competitive environment, and we see tremendous opportunities in bringing together academia, the private sector and consumers to advance the cause of this competition, ” said Paul Nadeau, principal, Deloitte Consulting LLP.
