CyberForce, the Department of Energy’s collegiate cyber-defense competition, is approaching at exascale speed. Mark your calendar for November 16, when student teams from colleges and universities across the nation will contend with defending a simulated cyber-physical infrastructure from professionally executed cyberattacks. This year, the Department of Energy is also hosting a CyberForce Competition™ Professional Pilot to coincide with the collegiate competition, in which industry cyber defenders will test their cyber prowess in a similar cyber-defense simulation. CyberForce Competition scores will be considered when hiring for current and future DOE positions.
