The CIAS co-founded CyberPatriot, the world’s largest cyber defense competition. The competition’s purpose and design are to inspire students toward careers in cybersecurity or STEM disciplines critical to our nation’s future.
The CIAS was established at UTSA in June of 2001 as part of UTSA’s creation of a cybersecurity program. The CIAS delivers quality research, training, K-12 education, and competition and exercise programs to advance organizational and community cybersecurity capabilities and collaboration.
