Cybersecurity Club
Cybersecurity Club — Through hands-on activities and group discussion, the JCCC Cybersecurity Club will explore key concepts of defensive cybersecurity, penetration testing and ethical hacking. In a world where things are becoming more electronic, understanding these cybersecurity concepts and knowing how to properly defend and test key devices is paramount. We will use our time together to further our understanding of these important subjects. Contact Dr. Long for more information.
In October 2023, the JCCC Cybersecurity Club presented how to stay safe on the internet to the campus and community. Topics included in the discussion were password managers, internet browsing, and ChatGPT vulnerabilities. To learn more about staying safe on the internet, reach out to the Cybersecurity Club.
