Cybersecurity Team Earns Gold Again
Once again, Barstow's cybersecurity team is the top Missouri finisher in the gold division of the National Youth Cyber Defense Competition.
The contest, sponsored by CyberPatriot, challenges participants to outthink and outwit digital sleuths in a series of computer security tests based on real-world situations. Following their top state finish in December, team members will compete in the national gold division semifinal on Friday, Jan. 19.
