CyberDawgs Fall Semester Reminders

Get Involved and Stay Connected!

Hey CyberDawgs!

It was wonderful to meet all of you at our table yesterday at Involvement Fest! For those who could not make it, and as a reminder, here are some ways you can get involved and stay connected with us this semester:

Chat with Us!
If you haven't already, join the Club Discord! (https://discord.gg/SKwhhNyrdJ)
To make the most of our Discord, we invite you to chat with us in #club-general. Feel free to ask questions, share your ideas, send #memes, and photos of your #pets! If you haven't already, we encourage you to introduce yourself in the #member-introductions channel.

Attend Club Meetings
Our meetings will take place every Monday Night from 7:10 PM to 9:00 PM in Engineering 231 or virtually via Webex: https://umbc.webex.com/meet/CyberDawgs. Everyone is welcome, regardless if you're well-versed in cybersecurity or completely new to the field. 

Follow Official Updates on myUMBC
To get the most out of our myUMBC Group, make sure you enable notifications for "All Updates". You don't want to miss any announcements!

Club Google Calendar
Add our Club Google Calendar to track all meetings and events: http://bit.ly/CyberDawgsCalendar

Participate in CyberPaws CTF (Capture-the-Flag)
Each week, a new CTF challenge will be released. They will be fun, beginner-friendly, and designed to help build your skills. There will also be cool tech prizes for the top solvers.

Compete in CDE
Our Cyber Defense Exercise (CDE) will be on Saturday, October 21. CDE is a Red/Blue competition open to all UMBC undergraduates. It is a great way to get the taste of the competition environment and learn about cybersecurity. Information about registration will be out later this semester.

Check out the Website
You can find an overview of our club, along with valuable resources and links, on our website: https://umbccd.umbc.edu/

Our First Meeting is this Upcoming Monday Night, we can not wait to see you all there!

Finally, do not hesitate to reach out to me (@truegritter) on Discord with any questions.

Kind Regards,
William Brooks
CyberDawgs President
