    <div>From the Executive Director: </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Dear MEEC Members,</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The New Year has arrived along with the snow. February is bringing warmer weather, the sun, and if the groundhog is correct, an early Spring!</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>The MEEC Office has been trying out new technology products, using products we own and know little about, and diving more into AI technology. Allowing the time to explore and become comfortable with new technologies will be a long-term benefit. As always, our focus remains on the MEEC contract details, renewals, and challenges that come along. A “Contract Update” column is included in this edition of the MEEC Minutes.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Looking forward to seeing you at the 2024 MEEC Member Conference and Vendor Showcase. Until then, have a great end of winter and early spring.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>Best,</div>
    <div>Tamara</div>

<Title>CyberDawgs Team Spring Tryout Information</Title>
<Tagline>FRI, MAY 3 [12:00 - 15:00] | SAT, MAY 4 [12:00 - 15:00]</Tagline>
<Body>
<![CDATA[
    <div class="html-content">
    <div><strong>Hey CyberDawgs, </strong></div>
    <div><strong><br></strong></div>
    <div>Below is Information on the team tryouts, coming to you <strong>May 3rd &amp; 4th!</strong><br><br>
    </div>
    <div><strong>First, here is the Application Form (Open to Undergrads and Grads):</strong></div>
    <div><a href="https://forms.gle/Abv1mnLaDVoC1Bar5">https://forms.gle/Abv1mnLaDVoC1Bar5</a></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong><u>Overview:</u></strong></div>
    <div>As a team, the CyberDawgs participate in numerous collegiate cyber competitions where we have achieved national recognition, including DOE CyberForce in Illinois, ISTS in New York, and MACCDC right here at home in Maryland. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>While we have a history of success and high achievement, we're not just looking for folks who are already cybersecurity gurus. You do need to have a solid defensive cyber foundation, but our highest emphases are on communication, group cohesion, and being able to continue doing this for fun.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong><u>When/Where</u></strong></div>
    <div><ul>
    <li>ENG 231 (probably)</li>
    <li>Friday, May 3rd, 12:00 - 15:00</li>
    <li>Saturday, May 4th, 12:00 - 15:00</li>
    </ul></div>
    <div><em>You only need to select 1 of these dates/times above to tryout.</em></div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong><u>Preparing for Tryouts</u></strong></div>
    <div>At the tryouts, you'll be assessed on your defensive cyber capabilities and knowledge as well as your documentation, interpersonal, and communication skills. The tryout packet, available only at the tryouts, will provide more information. </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div>To prepare, focus on learning and reviewing: </div>
    <div><ul>
    <li>what constitutes a cyber security vulnerability</li>
    <li>how to secure an operating system (i.e. a 'box') that is vulnerable</li>
    <li>how to manually find indicators of compromise, after an assumed breach</li>
    </ul></div>
    <div>You do not need to know a suite of tools for tryouts. You will not be given tools, aside from Nmap.</div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong><u>Tryout FAQs</u></strong></div>
    <div><em>What OS do I need to know? </em></div>
    <div><ul><li>You'll be asked in the application which type of OS you're most comfortable with and you'll be assigned a similar box to that for tryouts. So, if you indicate you're most familiar with Windows, you'll get a Windows server at tryouts. Linux people get a Linux server. You will only have to manage 1 machine.</li></ul></div>
    <div>
    <em>Will there be a technical interview?</em> <strong>No</strong>
    </div>
    <div>
    <em>Will I be asked coding questions?</em> <strong>No</strong>
    </div>
    <div>
    <em>Will I need to know offensive security?</em> <strong>No</strong>
    </div>
    <div>
    <em>Will I need to bring my own laptop?</em> <strong>YES</strong>
    </div>
    <div>
    <em>Will I be able to keep the tryout packet? </em><strong>No</strong>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong><u>Tryout Preparation Resources</u></strong></div>
    <div><ol>
    <li>The lecture recordings available from Fall semesters on the Active Cyber Defense course website [Meetings 3, 4, (5,6) 7 and 8. Especially Meeting 8: <a href="https://redirect.cs.umbc.edu/courses/undergraduate/CMSC491activeCyber/indexFall23.html" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://redirect.cs.umbc.edu/courses/undergraduate/CMSC491activeCyber/indexFall23.html</a> </li>
    <li>TryHackMe | <em>Cyber Security Training, Path- Blue Team:</em> <a href="https://tryhackme.com/path/outline/blueteam" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://tryhackme.com/path/outline/blueteam</a> [Defensive Security has a lot of different areas and this will give you a broad knowledge base. Focus on Sections 1, 3, 5 &amp; 6</li>
    </ol></div>
    <div>
    <div><strong><u>Below is some important information to consider for tryouts:</u></strong></div>
    <div><ol>
    <li>Recall that you will be assigned a virtual machine for tryouts. Which one you get is determined by your answer to the question <strong>"With which operating system are you most experienced?"</strong> When considering your answer to that question, consider that it is asking about experience in system administration, digital forensics, incident response, and general usage. This is a cybersecurity team tryouts. Keep that in mind.</li>
    <li>The virtual machine you will be assigned for tryouts doesn't use your local resources. Therefore, the specs of your personal laptop hardly matter. Bring and use whatever laptop with which you feel most comfortable</li>
    <li>The only requirement of the laptop you bring to tryouts is that is has RDP (only if you choose Windows), SSH (only if you choose Linux), and a WIFI adapter, because you need to be able to get on the tryout network via WIFI.</li>
    <li>It would probably help you to have Discord installed, though</li>
    <li>If your laptop has a Windows 'home' operating system, you might not natively have RDP. If you choose Windows as your tryout box, you will need RDP. Try this: <a href="https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/microsoft-remote-desktop/9WZDNCRFJ3PS?hl=en-gb&amp;gl=GB" rel="nofollow external" class="bo">https://apps.microsoft.com/detail/microsoft-remote-desktop/9WZDNCRFJ3PS?hl=en-gb&amp;gl=GB</a>
    </li>
    </ol></div>
    </div>
    <div><br></div>
    <div><strong><u>Final Thoughts</u></strong></div>
    <div><div>
    <strong>Remember you don't need to be a pro to tryout! Its always a good experience!</strong> If you have questions, comments, or concerns please feel free to reach out. </div></div>
    <div><br></div>
