Baylor Cyber Activities

Baylor Competitive Cybersecurity Group

The Baylor Cybersecurity Group participates in a variety of collegiate offensive and defensive competitions. The team trains intensively during the academic year in our cybersecurity labs. Often training is hosted in our dedicated, private cloud. Competition simulates real-world scenarios, encourages students to develop their skills, and then demonstrates their skill set and teamwork during competition. The Club meets weekly with professors to train in a laboratory setting.

The Club participates in a variety of competitions including:

  • Collegiate Cyber Defense Competition (CCDC) - SWCCDC
  • National Cyber League (NCL)
  • HiveStorm

Recent accomplishments include advancing to SWCDC Regionals and NCL Power Rankings.

Baylor Cybersecurity Resources

ITS Department

The primary mission of Information Technology Services is to provide excellent infrastructure, support, and innovation in the delivery of information technology products and services to enable and empower the university constituency.

BearAware

BearAware is Baylor's cybersecurity awareness initiative. Throughout the year, Baylor ITS keeps our community BearAware of the latest information security threats through BearAware cybersecurity updates, our @BaylorITS twitter account and the Baylor ITS Facebook page (look for the #BearAware in posts). When information security issues arise, BearAware alerts are distributed by email and through social media. The goal of our initiative is to keep the Baylor community informed about the latest cybersecurity threats so that both personal and university information resources remain secure.

Department of Public Safety

The Baylor Police Department’s (BUPD) mission is to proactively build and strengthen community partnerships. The men and women of the BUPD believe in a shared responsibility with our community to create a secure and inclusive environment that promotes and supports the educational process and also reduces both unsafe perceptions and the opportunity to commit crime on campus through the delivery of high quality, efficient, and consistent law enforcement services to all Baylor students, faculty, staff and visitors. BUPD will carry out this mission with professionalism, fairness and absolute integrity.
