PAIS Students Win a Cyber 9/12 Student Challenge Prize
Four students - all currently taught in PAIS - formed the University's Cyber 9/12 Student Challenge Team on 26/27 February. This two-day cyber policy competition was organised by the Atlantic Council for students across the globe to compete in developing national security policy recommendations tackling a fictional cyber catastrophe.
The Student Challenge rounds took place in Washington DC, Geneva, Sydney, New York and London - the latter at the top of the BT tower. Sixteen universities entered teams in the London round which featured a variety of challenges and tests. The Warwick team leader was Sarah Mainwaring and the other team members were Sophie Davies, Sophie Cowling and Emily Bassett. Day One featured policy briefing and Day Two featured an extended "Cyber Crisis Sim".
Congratulations to the Warwick team who won the prize for best performance in the "Cyber Crisis Sim."
