The camp offers a unique opportunity to train in San Jacinto College's Security Operations Center, utilizing industry-standard tools and guided by NASA contractor cybersecurity professionals.
The San Jacinto College CyberPatriot Camp provides middle and high school students with hands-on cybersecurity training. Participants engage in scenario-based learning within the college's Security Operations Center (SOC), a lab equipped with high-performance computers and industry-standard software. Students learn to run security audits, identify operating system vulnerabilities, and troubleshoot critical infrastructure. The curriculum, developed in partnership with the Ellington Civil Air Patrol and led by NASA contractor cybersecurity professionals, focuses on cyber defense strategies and prepares students for CyberPatriot competitions. The camp aims to create early exposure to cybersecurity, foster hands-on learning, and build a talent pipeline for the Gulf Coast region's cybersecurity workforce.
A typical day involves a mix of lecture material and hands-on lab learning, culminating in a mini CyberPatriot competition on the final day to reinforce the week's lessons.
This camp is ideal for middle and high school students aged 12-18 interested in exploring cybersecurity fundamentals and developing practical cyber defense skills.
