Cyber Security Challenge: Setting the scene

Source:  Cyber Security Challenge UK

The Cyber Security Challenge Masterclass final, which took place in the Churchill War Rooms in London, tested the skills of 42 finalists. Finalists had to defend the City of London from one of the country’s most realistic simulations of a cyber-security attack.                

Since the simulation was set up by experts in the field, it posed a challenge to the amateur hackers who had to determine who, what, where why and how.

In order to bring realism to the situation, challengers were presented with information and updates on the devastation caused by these attacked through staged news reports and briefings.
