Abstract
Precollege classrooms have neither the support nor the room to explore computer security topics. At best, students are the targets of in-school safety campaigns, absorbing rules and best practices that only hint at the rich landscape of security problems. How to expose young students to cybersecurity outside the classroom!to computer security technology, concepts, and careers!is a challenge. Unfortunately, popular media might give more visibility to cyber careers, albeit in the form of outlandish movie-plot cyber capers, than any precollege STEM (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) program does.
