iCSS-KMCC-ISC2-KMCS3 "Celebrating Cyber" Event on 22nd May 2024

What is the event about?
Cyber threats are increasingly affecting all of us as individuals and also all types of private and public sector organisations. As cyber threats become more sophisticated and pervasive, we all need to be more cyber-aware and resilient, and all organisations across the globe are seeking cyber professionals who understand how do prepare and protect their organisation from cyber-attacks.
To help raise awareness on cyber security and online safety among more people, Institute of Cyber Security for Society (iCSS) at the University of Kent, KMCC (Kent & Medway Cyber Cluster Ltd) and KMCS3 (Kent & Medway Cyber Security Student Society) jointly organised the 2023-24 CyberAnything Competition. The prize winners of the Competition have now been selected and will be announced at the event.
In addition, to help equip more people with cyber security skills and to fill the cyber skills gap in many industrial sectors, iCSS has established an academic partnership with ISC2, the world’s leading not-for-profit member association for cyber security professionals, to organise cyber security certification training activities. Such activities are delivered jointly with KMCC as iCSS’s strategic partner. An ongoing project in this area is the ISC2-iCSS-KMCC 1MCC campaign, for encouraging more people to consider ISC2’s beginner-facing cyber security certification CC. Another planned activity is a pilot summer training course for ISC2’s more advanced cyber security certification CISSP. More details of such training activities will be announced at the event.
