Hack The Port 22 Thoughts
"MISI hosted Hack the Port 2022, bringing together some of the most elite cyber professionals from across the nation, sharing wisdom and extending invitations into cyber initiatives that will have long lasting and powerful impact across governmental and civilian communities alike."
"What a week! First and most fundamentally, I am grateful to have simply had the opportunity to share space with real live three dimensional humans this past week at the #hacktheport conference in Ft. Lauderdale. I got to meet many brilliant colleagues."
"Congratulations on an incredible event. It was great to see the Aggies interest and enthusiasm translate into competitive success. Thank you for providing such a challenging experiential growth opportunity. Its full impact won’t be judged by this week because the experience will pay dividends for years to come."
"I am grateful to have had the opportunity to attend #HackthePort2022 conference and competition this past week. As a member of the blue team, I got the chance to learn about the importance of collaborative defense and was able to utilize a few cyber defense tools such as Elasticsearch, Cisco Cyber Vision and ntop-ng. Thanks to MISI, Armando Seay, and everyone else for putting this great experience together! And of course, Malory Saunders-Gooding, for organizing this whole trip for the SFS CyberCorps cadets!"
"You have provided outstanding motivation for my community, department, and most important students."
"Hack the Port was a first class conference on every level. Well done. Your team was flawless in my eyes. I loved the workforce panel I had - your team had the perfect lineup - again 5 stars"
