摘要

The Air Force Association's CyberPatriot youth cyber education program is six years old and still growing fast. What began in 2009 as a one-round, face-to-face cyber defense contest between eight Orlando, Fla.-area, Junior ROTC and Civil Air Patrol units expanded into a multidivision virtual reality competition that drew more than 2,100 teams from all 50 states, Canada, and Europe in 2014-15. The cyber defense education effort has also broadened its offerings, morphing into more than an online battle. CyberPatriot's cyber education initiative aims to teach elementary school kids about staying safe when they surf the Web. The program launched trial CyberCamps last summer to engage students in computer security education year-round. But CyberPatriot's biggest gain, according to its commissioner, may be that it has begun to have a measurable effect on its participants' higher education and occupation choices. Almost 90 percent of past competitors now in college are focusing on a STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) field, according to a CyberPatriot-sponsored survey. The vast majority of these respondents said that CyberPatriot itself had at least somewhat affected their choice.
