Georgia Southern Recognized at National Cybersecurity Education Colloquium (NCEC)

Having been designated as an NSA CAE-CD (Center of Academic Excellence in Cyber Defense) on June 21, 2023, Georgia Southern was formally recognized as such at the 2023 NCEC held at Moraine Valley Community College in Palos Hills, Illinois, on September 19, 2023. Accepting the certificate for the university was Assistant Professor Frank Katz, Director of the university’s Center for Applied Cyber Education (CACE) and Point of Contact (PoC) between Georgia Southern and the NSA CAE program. Professor Katz was instrumental in creating the original NSA CAE designation for Armstrong State University in 2015, and ensuring that the designation was achieved by Georgia Southern after the two universities were consolidated by the University System of Georgia’s Board of Regents in 2018.
