Get Cyber-Charged

Cyber-Charged is a day camp program that

teaches first principles of cybersecurity in a

fun, hands-on environment. Students learn

about the building blocks of a computer,

programming in python, computer operating

systems and software, cybersecurity first

principles, cyber-threats, cyber-defenses,

network security, firewalls, and virus scanning.

Our camps are designed for relative

beginners to cybersecurity and computing.

We offer programs for various grade levels

from rising 5th to rising 9th graders who are

ready to learn and experience cybersecurity.

The middle school camps are sponsored by the

National Security Agency and the National

Science Foundation through the GenCyber

program. Camp fees are covered by the grant.
