You may ask, “What is CyberPatriots?” It’s a National Youth Cyber Defense competition that puts teams of high school and middle school students in the position of newly hired IT professionals tasked with managing the network of a small company. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through a series of online 6-hour competition rounds once a month, teams are given a set of virtual operating systems and are tasked with finding and fixing cybersecurity vulnerabilities while maintaining critical services. This competition started in September with over 3,600 teams nationwide. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only 300 teams made it to the semifinals, including multiple teams from Kraemer Middle School. Three of Kraemer’s five teams, which include four to six students a team, made it to the semifinals! The competition was held on January 20.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The teams were made up of the following students:
Team 15-1564<\/strong>
– Dahee Lee
– Ragini Bhambani
– Zavira Cain
– Livia Yu
– Ruthvika Rajesh

Team 15-1566<\/strong>
– Gavin Du
– Harold Zhang
– Jameson Xu
– Nathan Huynh
– Ryan Chen
– Eva Yoon

Team 15-1567<\/strong>
– Shrihun Andhe
– Josiah Yoon
– Joshua Wang
– Aiden Kim<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remarkably, two of Kraemer’s three teams placed in the top 25 nationwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“Please congratulate the Cyber Patriots teams on a job well done,” Kraemer Principal Michael Young shared. “Team 15-1566 placed 11th, which is 8th in the State of California, and Team 15-1567 placed 20th, which is 11th in the State of California.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Way to go, Cubs!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
