BTAA Cybersecurity Awareness Month Collaboration: Level Up Your Cyber Game! College Competition Edition!
Join the Big Ten Academic Alliance (BTAA) in partnership with the National Cybersecurity Alliance (NCA) on October 30 at 1 p.m. to compete against our campus rivals! In this real-time virtual gameshow event, our NCA host will deliver security challenges suitable for students, staff, and faculty alike, teaching you practical techniques to help safeguard your digital life. The more challenges you complete and questions you answer correctly, the more points you (and Rutgers) earn toward the BTAA leaderboard!
