From the Classroom to the Front Lines of Cybersecurity
In 2022, our organization played a key role in a collaborative cybersecurity exercise involving the City of Springfield. As part of a controlled learning experience, a Dury student attempted to hack the city’s systems under the supervision of MCCoE professionals through a network penetration test.
This partnership provided field training while helping secure local cybersecurity defenses. Our goal is to continue facilitating hands-on experiences that bridge education and industry for stronger security. Contact us with ideas or opportunities to develop professionals through live simulations.
