CyberTitan Champions: Inside Canada's National High School Cybersecurity Competition (and CyberPatriot)

Cybersecurity Today on the Weekend interviews the winning Canadian CyberTitan team ("S-ores"/a regex-based name) along with coach Phil, educator Tim, and CyberTitan manager Sheena to explain how CyberTitan (run by ICTC) connects to the international CyberPatriot program. They describe the competition mechanics—securing compromised Windows, Windows Server, and Linux virtual machines for points, plus Cisco Packet Tracer networking—and how Canadian teams compete through CyberPatriot before the top teams advance to a national CyberTitan final. Students Faye and Eric share why they joined, their learning "aha" moments in Windows tools and networking concepts, and the value of teamwork. The guests discuss teacher benefits, free training materials, building diverse participation, sponsorship challenges, and hopes for a fully Canadian program with regional events and cloud-based cyber ranges like Field Effect's.
