The 2nd Night of Cybersecurity will be hosted by the Central Maryland Chapter of the Information System Security Association on November 7 from 6-8:30 pm at USRA in Columbia, Maryland. The Night is one of over 450 events of the 2016 Maryland STEM Festival (http://marylandstemfestival.org). The mission of the Festival is to encourage Maryland students to take a greater interest in STEM and hopefully purse STEM related careers. The Maryland STEM Festival is one of the largest events of its kind in the Nation.

The Night of Cybersecurity is also the kick-off for the big Maryland NSA Day of Cyber on November 10th. The first Night of Cybersecurity drew over 60 High School and College students. We are expecting over 100 High School and College Students to attend this year’s Night of Cybersecurity. The role of participants at the Night of Cybersecurity is to discuss what it is like to be a Cybersecuity professional. Some of the other organizations that are expect to be represented at the Night of Cybersecurity are NSA, NIST, US Army, Northrup Grumman, Dell and Tenable. The address of the event is 7178 Columbia Gateway Dr, Columbia, Maryland 21046. Refreshments will be served. Thank you.
