Hello, I am the Captain of the AFA CyberPatriot team. CyberPatriot is a competition where teams compete against hundreds of other teams across the nation to secure different operating systems against hacker vulnerabilities. We have two teams consisting of JROTC cadets, ranging from AS-1s to AS-4s. The members of Team 1 are: Shazim Chaudhary, Ankush De, Lance Justiniani, Daryll Munoz, Rohan Patel, and myself. The members of Team 2 are: Tanya Chahal, Justina Choo, Hams Elshaikh, Sambhav Patel, Sapan Patel, and Janani Subramanian.
During the competitions the teams work on 2-4 laptops simultaneously for 6 hours straight, as they compete to be the best in the nation. Both teams have performed extremely well in the past, and continue to show aptitude and proficiency. For the first competition Team 1 placed 6th out of all AFJROTC schools in the nation, and Team 2 placed 27th. For the second competition Team 1 placed 8th out of all AFJROTC schools in the nation, and Team 2 placed 31st. We just completed the competition for the state championships and are currently waiting for the results.
