With technology advancing exponentially and more of our personal information out in the ether, cybersecurity has quickly become one of the most vital applications in STEM and one of the fastest-growing job markets! Microsoft employees will lead students through a hands-on activity to test their skills and see how cybersecurity applies to their daily lives.

Microsoft’s mission is to enable people and businesses throughout the world to realize their full potential by creating technology that transforms the way people work, play, and communicate.

This event is available nationwide (virtual) and in-person (Puget Sound) for students in grades 6-12.
