Social Engineering Capture the Flag Summer School
The objective in creating the Cyber Security Summer School was to elevate Estonia’s reputation as a nation that has a focus on higher education and scientific development in the field of cyber security and to facilitate the acquisition and sharing of skills geared towards the creation of an information society in which we can all feel secure in the future. The Cyber Security Summer School creates an environment full of ideas, experiences and enthusiasm and we want these ideas, experiences and the enthusiasm to spread around the world! The recognized speakers and mentors, as well as the participants coming from all over the world will definitely help us to achieve this goal.
