Calling all Suffolk High schools and parents of year 8 and 9 students.

There are just a few spaces left on the FREE Cyber First Investigator training course on 23rd March in Ipswich.

The course is being run by the National Cyber Security Centre to help students explore their passion for computers and technology and introducing them to the fascinating world of cyber security.

On the day, you will be role-playing as cyber security experts working for a fictitious app company, Sirius Cyberworks. Unfortunately, disaster has struck and there has been a serious breach of the company network – a new flagship app has been leaked.

Your role is to uncover how the leak happened whilst learning new cyber skills along the way. The course content is designed around four modules:

Digital Forensics – Detect misconduct or trace suspicious activity. Channel your inner investigator to find evidence on computers, mobile phones and other digital devices.

Cryptography – Crack the codes. In this exciting module, teams will be challenged to use creative ideas to solve problems and design new systems.

Penetration Testing – Stop malicious hackers in their tracks. Discover how to identify different groups that conduct cyber attacks, their motivations and penetration methodologies.

Open Source Intelligence – Find intelligence sources. Everything you do online leaves a digital footprint; how will you protect it?

The course will be on Saturday 23rd March from 9am to 4pm. For safeguarding purposes, venue details are released only to registered attendees closer to the time. Reserve you place herewww.qa.com/training/courses/cyber-security/cyberfirst/cyberfirst-investigators/
