Welcome to the 24-hour cyber security hackathon, an event designed to bring together the brightest minds in the field of cybersecurity to collaborate, innovate, and create cutting-edge solutions to keep our nation safe from cyber threats.
Over the next 24 hours, participants will work in teams to develop innovative cybersecurity solutions, using the latest technologies and techniques to address a range of cyber threats. These could include network security, data protection, encryption, threat detection and response, and much more.
The goal of this hackathon is to create a platform for young talent to showcase their skills and come up with innovative solutions that can help keep our nation safe from cyber threats. The top teams from this hackathon will be nominated from our university to participate in the national-level hackathon Kavach where they will compete against other top teams from across the country.
So, get ready to push your limits, collaborate with like-minded individuals, and create solutions that can make a real difference in keeping our nation's cyber infrastructure secure. Good luck to all the participants!
