Cyber Team Mission

The mission of the Red Rocks Community College Cyber Team is to advance our learning with hands-on cyber security competitions. These competitions allow us to test our skills in real world scenarios and against other students from various schools. To date we have competed with and against students from Regis University, the University of New Mexico, BYU, CSU, and cadets from the United States Air Force Academy.

Cyber Team events 

CANVAS Computer And Network Vulnerability Assessment Simulation, is a day-long regional computer security exercise that began in 2007 and hosted by Regis University. It is designed to teach students security concepts by providing a hands-on environment to discover vulnerabilities on a "live" system. It is intended to include students of varying levels of ability and background. Teams are composed of students from different schools with different experience levels. Teams use cyber tools to investigate the system in question and write a report of their findings. Prizes are awarded to teams with the best report of vulnerabilities discovered and recommended solution.

RMCCDC - Rocky Mountain Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition hosted by Regis University, is a two day, regional event and the first competition that specifically focuses on the operational aspect of managing and protecting an existing “commercial” network infrastructure. Not only do students get a chance to test their knowledge in an operational environment, they will also get a chance to network with industry professionals who are always on the look out for up and coming engineers. RMCCDC 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 winning team moves on to represent the region in the national competition.

Information Systems Security Association - Denver chapter events. These events include war games scenarios, guest speakers and networking events.Cyber Forensics Challenge - The Black T-Shirt Cyber Forensics Challenge is a joint academic and industry contest designed to promote interest in digital forensics, foster relationships among academic institutions, develop between academia and the corporate sector, and provide a valuable hands-on exercise for learning and training.
