National Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition

CCDC is a three day event and the first competition that specifically focuses on the operational aspect of managing and protecting an existing “commercial” network infrastructure. Students get a chance to test their knowledge in an operational environment. They also get a chance to network with industry professionals who are always on the look out for up and coming engineers.

CCDC provides a unique opportunity for students and industry professionals to interact and discuss many of the security and operational challenges the students will soon face as they enter the job market.

The CCDC is in the Education Directory because it specifically exists for students.
