    2020 Cyber 9/12 Challenge - Day One

    We are excited to announce that the Strauss Center at The University of Texas at Austin is partnering with the Atlantic Council’s Cyber Statecraft Initiative to host a “regional” round of the Atlantic Council’s renowned cybersecurity policy competition. This stand-alone event will take place at the University of Texas School of Law on January 16th and 17th, with up to 24 teams vying for a title that includes, not just bragging rights, but also a cash prize for the top three teams (not to mention a deeply-enriching learning experience for all participants). Included in the two-day event will be a keynote speaker, as well as opportunities for professional development.
