U.S. Department of Energy to Hold Fifth CyberForce Competition™
The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) will host its fifth CyberForce Competition™ on Nov. 16. The event, held at 10 of the DOE’s National Laboratories across the United States, will challenge 105 college teams to defend a simulated energy infrastructure from cyber-attacks.
During the competition, teams will compete to defend their simulated infrastructure from attacks by adversarial “red teams” composed of industry professionals, all while maintaining service for their “green team” customers, played by volunteers. A national winner, as well as winners for each laboratory site, will be announced following the competition.
