Cyber attacks are the ‘greatest threat facing humanity.’
National Cybersecurity Center is a nonprofit for cyber innovation and awareness. We are based in Colorado Springs, CO with a national and GLOBAL Mission: Secure the World.
OUR PROGRAMS
Cyber Education
The NCC’s Cyber Education Program provides cybersecurity leadership, with two main pillars: K-12 education, NCC Student Alliance, and the Adult Education Initiative. As our nation addresses the critical gap in skilled cybersecurity talent, NCC addresses the importance of cyber education through programs and partnerships that invite students to participate in an ecosystem which encourages them to learn, explore, and build their skills.
The Space Information Sharing and Analysis Center (ISAC), a separate nonprofit organization, has the mission to facilitate collaboration across the global space industry to enhance our ability to prepare for and respond to vulnerabilities, incidents and threats; to disseminate timely and actionable information among member entities; and to serve as the primary communications channel for the sector with respect to this information.
Secure the Vote seeks to increase voter confidence in the U.S. on the accuracy of vote-counting, and to generate greater awareness of possible solutions to critical gaps in the voting infrastructure. Secure the Vote supports jurisdictions’ efforts to offer a secure, auditable mobile voting option for overseas voters through coordinating and evaluating pilots across the country.
Cybersecurity for State leaders is an NCC initiative, supported by Google, to empower state lawmakers and staff with smart cybersecurity practices, and to raise awareness of the importance of safeguarding and strengthening cybersecurity. We’re launching soon! Sign up to stay in touch and get notified for our launch.
Hyper-connectivity amongst smart devices and urbanization drive the need for cities to become more efficient in their operations as they continue to grow, but the concern of security impedes the overall advancement of several cities with “Smart” agendas.
Secure the Vote seeks to increase confidence in the integrity of elections and improve security around gaps in the infrastructure.
