ITSPMagazine Podcast: The Road to Athens

Written by US Cyber Games | September 3, 2021

Redefining education by reaching a global, connected audience through real-world scenarios and gaming

Cybersecurity is a really cool profession, there is room for many to join in, and the skills required are numerous and diverse. So why aren't we attracting enough people into this massively understaffed field?

In this podcast, ITSPMagazine talks with US Cyber GamesĀ® Commissioner, Jessica Gulick and TikTok Global CISO, Roland Cloutier about the first International Cybersecurity Challenge, which is destined to be held in Athens, Greece, and tentatively scheduled for December 7-12, 2021.

The adventure started a few months ago, but the excitement is far from over. At this stage, The US team has selected their coaches, the team is trying out as part of the Cyber Combine selection process, and several critical milestones are ahead of us.

What is also happening is that this unique and innovative competition is making the news, interesting the public, and bringing new players to join the ranks of those supporting this initiative.
