Canada's Cyber Security Challenge

About us

The CyberSci security challenge is a series of regional team competitions hosted across Canada for university and college students interested in cyber security as a career. Regional winners compete in the Canadian national finals, and top teams go on to represent Canada at international events. CyberSci is a non-profit supported by Canadian employers who are excited about hiring students to fill their cyber workforce needs. Our regional events are a chance to interact for a whole day - not as spectators, but truly embedded with the most talented students in Canada - to find those that would best fit their open cyber positions. The challenging excitement of the competitions draws the best candidates into the profession and fills Canada’s growing need for highly competent professionals in cyber security.
