    As cyberattacks continue to increase dramatically in both sophistication and volume, the US finds itself with less than half the trained cybersecurity professionals needed. This severe shortage is a national security crisis. It also represents a significant threat to California—the world’s fifth-largest economy and the epicenter of digitalization and tech innovation.Cal Poly California Cybersecurity Institute (CCI) leads a state and national initiative to address this challenge. The CCI enhances California's cybersecurity defense capability by bringing together the tech community, government agencies, and educational institutions.Through education, workforce development, and applied research, CCI works to build a skilled and innovative cyber workforce capable of navigating today’s complex threat landscape. This initiative helps to safeguard California's data, computer systems, and critical infrastructure. My work involved training a new generation of cybersecurity experts in the latest tools and techniques. The training was done through podcasts on the Space Grand Podcast and training programs through the website and our annual event, the Space Grand Challenge. I was also responsible for live and recorded video productions, Twitch broadcasting, podcasts, and video interviews.The Space Grand Challenge is an international competition open to middle and high school students from across the globe! Teams worldwide will compete in a gamified satellite cybercrime scenario to help solve scenarios. Through this gamified experience, students will learn more about cybersecurity, and hopefully spark new curiosities.
