Many participants from the commercial sector also felt they received valuable insights to take
back to their companies.
One such participant stated, “This sprint instilled a lot of personal confidence when it comes to
critical thinking that I could carry back to my industry. I also felt like I was making a positive
impact and difference for the AF.”
Issuing the Call
The CyberWorx program currently has the capacity to run two simultaneous projects, but is
looking to expand this capacity (and add a secure design facility) later this year.
Additionally, the Air Force is working on a plan to construct a new building on the Academy
campus that will enable CyberWorx to host ten simultaneous projects.
Thus, C-TRAC is calling all industry, academia, and state or local government members who
may have interest in being part of this innovative, new program.
Although participation is on a voluntary basis, the rewards are great including the opportunity to
network with leaders in industry, academia, and the military in a collaborative effort that could
dynamically change the face of how the Air Force handles cyber issues as well as transform
best practices within the participant’s own workplace.
