This talk aims to promote the establishment of an NREN-lead cybersecurity challenge(/contest/competition) for students interested in information security. SANReN would like to run such a challenge within South Africa and are willing to lead a collaborative effort for national and international level competitions ideally culminating in an International NREN / GÉANT Cybersecurity Challenge. This may alternatively serve as a platform for NRENs to coordinate national competitions aligned to the European Cybersecurity Challenge (www.europeancybersecuritychallenge.eu) and/or send the finalists to. We are just starting this exercise and would like to find out whether the community is interested in getting involved, knows of similar initiatives, etc.
