ASHBURN, Va., May 30, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- For the first time, the United States
will host the 2023 International Cybersecurity Championship and Conference

This one-of-a-kind event experience blends esports, athletics, and networking

is expected to watch eight teams from Asia, the Middle East, Europe, Canada,
Latin America & the Caribbean, Australia/New Zealand, and the USA go
head-to-head over an epic three days of competition. Teams of 15 cyber athletes
ages 18-25 years old will compete with a live audience in Capture the Flag
(Forensics, Crypto, Web Security, Reverse Engineering, and Binary Exploitation),
a Hardware CTF, and an Attack and Defense Competition. Cybersecurity experts
will be shout casting important game highlights while also providing
explanations to the audience about game preparation, talent scouting, strategy,
and tactics.

Exciting Roster of Speakers
In addition to the games, IC3 will offer attendees the opportunity to attend
sessions featuring some of the world's foremost experts on cybersecurity.
Confirmed speakers include Director of NICE Rodney Petersen, CISA Deputy
Director Nitin Natarajan, Senior Vice President, Operations & Technology (O&T)

(formerly DART) Ping Look, Head of Cybersecurity for the United Arab Emirates
Government (UAE) H.E. Dr. Mohamed Al-Kuwaiti, and NFL CISO Tomás Maldonado -
just to name a few. Our esteemed speakers will share their insights on the power
of global collaboration to cultivate a strong, diverse cybersecurity workforce,
the importance of aligning cyber games to drive needed job skills, and the role
of cyber games and exercises in building resilience into corporate risk
strategies.

Exclusive: Live Twitch Streaming
Thanks to our sponsor Mastercard, we are thrilled to announce that the global
championship games will be live-streamed on Twitch!

An Experience Like No Other
According to Jessica Gulick, the founder of PlayCyber and the US Cyber Games®,
"IC3 stands out among other international cybersecurity conferences due to its
unique combination of sessions featuring world-renowned cybersecurity experts,
an elite cyber esport competition, and a hands-on expo for event attendees to
try cyber games. IC3 not only offers education and entertainment but also
proactively addresses critical workforce issues in the industry and around the
world." Gulick emphasized that "IC3 speaks to the ongoing skills shortage and
the need for continued cybersecurity skills development – issues that remain
pervasive within the global cybersecurity community."
