CyberFirst
Today there are several initiatives designed to seek out those with potential, offer the support, skills, experience and exposure needed to be the future first line of defence in a CyberFirst world.
We want to find diverse young minds from up and down the UK – not just coders but entrepreneurs, public speakers, analysts and more – who’ll become the next generation of cyber specialists.
Our core mission is to inspire and nurture talent by providing a range of opportunities.
The CyberFirst Schools scheme (previously known as Cyber Schools Hub) has been hugely successful thanks to the support of local and global industries.
Working with schools, universities, businesses and government bodies, our initiative is training tomorrow’s cyber security community.
