- Actionable cyber behaviours that you can apply and share with others to safeguard privacy and personal data
- A glimpse into the role of a cyber defender
- The opportunity to meet students and staff from the University of Wollongong’s Faculty of Engineering and Information Sciences and find out about career pathways.
