National Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition 2008

2007 NCCDC Results

Congratulations to Texas A&M on winning the second National Collegiate Cyber Defense competition. We would like to take a moment to thank all of the teams who participated for making this a great experience. The professionalism and the manner in which each team conducted themselves throughout the weekend could not have been any better. The race was tight throughout the weekend and each team and the institutions they represented should be extremely proud of their efforts. A complete list of competitors and the final standings can be found here.

We would also like to thank the Department of Homeland Security for their continued support of the competition. DHS also made the announcement that they will be sponsoring the winning team to attend and participate in Cyberstorm II. Having taken part in the last Cyberstorm, we know what a great opportunity this is for Texas A&M and look forward to hearing about their experiences.

All of our white and red team volunteers and our sponsors deserve special recognition as well. These competitions are very difficult and costly to put together and without the overwhelming support we receive from the community and industry this competition, as well as the regional competitions, would not be possible.
