What is Cyber Explorers ? CYSE 100 Cyber Explorers and University Orientation was a course strictly for those accepted into the Cybersecurity Living Learning Community (LLC) at Old Dominion University. This is a foundational course that introduced key concepts such as cyber awareness and helped students adjust to university life while providing and early introduction into cybersecurity disciplines.

Submission:

My favorite part of the CyberOps conference had to be interacting with the other cyber security students that I have not met/ spoke too before. When I first when there, I was a little nervous to interact with the other students because I felt we may not have a lot in common with each other. However, it was the exact opposite, I felt comfortable in the environment I was in and even got to know them more. At first, I sat with my friend Sebastian, but eventually more people came to sit at our table which sparked conversation. After a while I pulled out my computer and started to work on the Capture the Flag activity we started in class. Overall, I really enjoyed the experience and would definitely attend another one. It was good to talk to new people who also share the same interest in cybersecurity as me.
