Project Xander Teaches Critical Cyber Analysis SkillsÂ
Project Xander provides mentoring services to 249 student participants at UTSA learning how to perform cyber analysis that assists local non-profit and faith-based agencies in protecting themselves from malicious cyber activity. Faith-based and non-profit organizations are particularly vulnerable to cybercrime attacks. While the students in Project Xander gain valuable experience in addressing these real-world security issues, their resulting assessment reports can then be used as roadmaps for adoption by governmental oversight agencies and policy makers to implement their own cybercrime prevention and security maintenance programs. Project Xander currently covers the San Antonio region and has expanded to include Loudoun County, VA. Further expansion plans for 2023 will include Austin and San Angelo, TX, as well as regions in Alabama, Florida, California, and Wyoming.Â
