About Weber State Cybersecurity Club

Welcome to the Weber State Cybersecurity Club! We are a dynamic, student-run organization dedicated to exploring the practical, technical, and ethical sides of cybersecurity. Our mission is to build a thriving community where Wildcat students can collaborate on projects, find career opportunities, collaborate on coursework, and connect with like-minded peers and industry professionals.

How To Join

Getting started is simple. Follow these two steps to get involved:

  • Official Registration: Head over to the Weber State Clubs & Organizations portal to officially register as a club member.
  • Join Our Discord: Our community lives on Discord! It is the fastest way to get real-time club updates, event changes, class help, and network with other members.
  • Next Step: Head straight to the #sign-in channel when you arrive to get full access to the server.

What We Do

We bridge the gap between classroom theory and real-world execution. Our activities dive deep into the diverse facets of the cyber world:

Hands-on Tool Workshops: 

Get practical experience using industry-standard tools like Wireshark, Nmap, Metasploit, and Linux command-line utilities.

Defensive & Offensive Puzzles:

Engage in Capture the Flag (CTF) challenges and TryHackMe rooms to build practical problem-solving methodologies.

Career Readiness & Networking:

Benefit from dedicated technical resume reviews, LinkedIn optimization workshops, and mock interviews tailored for security roles.

Industry Connections:

Learn directly from cybersecurity professionals through guest speaker events and regional conferences, including funded trips to events like the Women in CyberSecurity (WiCyS) conference.
