The world-class international cybersecurity conference, “CODE BLUE 2024,” has announced its full program, including sponsor talks. This is the 12th annual edition of the conference. Pre-registration is now open and will remain available until November 7. The event will host speakers, guests, and attendees from all over the world. At the event, a team of CyberFirst Bursary alumni will represent the UK at the inaugural Kunoichi Cyber Games, held during the Code Blue cybersecurity conference in Tokyo. This team consists of young women who participated in the National Cyber Security Centre’s (NCSC) CyberFirst Bursary scheme and have since embarked on careers in cybersecurity.

The CyberFirst Bursary, initiated and overseen by the NCSC, a division of GCHQ, is designed to support and equip undergraduates for successful careers in cybersecurity.

At the upcoming competition, the team will compete alongside women from Japan, the USA, and Europe across various formats representing the cybersecurity sector.
