In White Hat Hacking (AKA, Cyber Defenders), campers will step into the role of ethical hackers, learning the fundamentals of cybersecurity through hands-on challenges inspired by CyberPatriot competitions. They'll explore network security, operating system vulnerabilities, and how to safeguard data against real-world threats. Campers will practice skills such as identifying and patching security flaws, configuring firewalls, and managing user permissions to protect systems. Through engaging activities like defending a simulated network, detecting intrusions, and securing critical files, they'll gain valuable experience in teamwork and problem-solving. By the end of the course, campers will have a solid foundation in cybersecurity, preparing them for one of the most in-demand fields of the future
This place is amazing for kids to learn and develop at! There is a good balance of learning about technology and socializing. One thing that I was fearful of is that this camp was going to be all in front a computer, yet there was a lot of time spent outside playing games as well. All in all, this program is great!
Our kids loved attending Planet Bravo each summer. The courses were always fun and engaging for our kids and the instructors were always hands-on and very patient when our kids needed additional help. They also did a great job of transitioning to online courses during the Covid years. I would highly recommend!
