Our HSSN Cyber Team focuses on training and practice for participation in two primary competitions. (1) US CyberPatriot Program: The National Youth Cyber Education Program, and (2) The Palmetto Cyber Defense Competition (PCDC). Both of these programs provide competition environments that deliver a variety of additional benefits for teens beyond the HSSN classes:
● Advanced skills in computers, networks, cybersecurity, and digital forensics
● Teamwork and problem solving skills development
● Chances to win scholarships
● Exposure to industry internship programs in technology and Cybersecurity
