Defending AnyTown: Our students had the thrilling experience of defending AnyTown, a city under threat from cyber-attacks. Collaborating with experts, they worked tirelessly to safeguard critical infrastructure from potential disruptions, gaining hands-on experience and insight into the importance of cyber defense in today's world.
Embracing AI: Alongside cybersecurity, our students delved into the realm of Artificial Intelligence, exploring its growing significance in the tech landscape. From controlling electronic dogs using AI to envisioning future advancements, they discovered the limitless potential of AI and its impact on various industries, including cybersecurity.
A Big Thank You: Engadine High School extends heartfelt gratitude to Trevor Adams, Senior Project Officer at Training Services NSW, for making this invaluable opportunity possible.
