773 CYBER TEAM

Who Can Take Part?

Team Format

The CJCR Cyber Challenge model uses small cadet teams. The exact team size, eligibility and registration process can change, so 773 will post the current year's details at the top of this page when they are confirmed.

No Cyber Expert Required

Cadets do not need to arrive as computer experts. The activity is designed around learning, teamwork, research and progressively building cyber skills.

GETTING READY

Computer Requirements

The competition uses computer-based training and challenge software. Equipment requirements can change from year to year.

Before the Challenge

773 will confirm the current technical requirements before cadets begin. Some challenge software may require a Windows-capable computer with enough memory to run virtual-machine software.

Chromebooks & Tablets

Some devices may still be useful for research, but may not be able to run all competition software. Always check the current year's requirements before relying on a device.
