Cyber security competitions
Coached by DeVry faculty, our student teams compete twice a year in the National Cyber League (NCL) Games. This inclusive, learning-centered cyber security competition allows participants to demonstrate their skills in common workplace challenges, such as identifying hackers in forensic data, penetration testing, auditing vulnerable websites and recovering from ransomware attacks.
In the Spring 2026 competition, DeVry earned a #12 Power Rank nationally among colleges and universities — competing against more than 7,000 students nationwide. Student Matthew McCloskey also earned individual distinction, finishing 12th out of 7,010 competitors nationally, with DeVry placing 7th when power-ranked among all participating schools.
Students excelled in areas including auditing vulnerable websites, penetration testing, recovering from ransomware attacks, and identifying hackers in forensic data, showcasing skills shaped by our Cyber Security Center of Excellence, faculty mentorship model, and Cyber Skills Training Platform experiences.
While actual local growth will vary based on location, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics expects information security analyst jobs to grow 29% on a national level between 2024 and 2034.
