Spring Cyber Training Challenge

Bee Cyber Fit bee logo with baseball bat and glove

Hit a cyber home run!

You don’t have to be on a baseball team to hit a home run in cybersecurity. Our spring training challenge provides the tools you need to be cyber fit this season and all year long!

Our spring training challenge is your chance to draft your team, build your cyber muscles, and up your cybersecurity game.

Complete the Bee Cyber Fit at Yale training to get on the scoreboard and be entered to win exclusive swag. You can also earn extra entries along the way with trivia games, baseball-themed puzzles, and insightful virtual events.

Like a good equipment manager, we’ve got everything you need to get in the game – all you need to bring is your team of 4 players!

Join us starting April 21 to improve your cybersecurity performance and be a Yale Cyber Hero. Don’t settle for a single, double, or triple – knock it out of the park with a cybersecurity home run.

How to win

Each week, you’ll focus on one training module (just 10–15 minutes!). Complete the full course to score 25 points per teammate — and qualify for our awesome swag pack. If you've already completed the training, you're ahead of the game!

Complete optional weekly tasks to earn additional points and climb our scoreboard!

Each player from our top teams will take home an exclusive baseball-themed prize pack!
