In partnership with HM Government a new virtual cyber security school gives teens chance to try out as cyber security agents from home.

  • Teens can learn how to crack codes, fix security flaws and dissect criminals’ digital trails
  • Comes as National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) launches CyberFirst summer courses online

Thousands of young people are being offered the chance to join a virtual cyber security school as part of plans to make sure the country develops the next generation of professional cyber defenders.

At a time when schools remain closed to most children, the online initiative aims to inspire future talent to work in the cyber security sector and give students a variety of extracurricular activities to do from the safety of their homes.
