National Teaching Ethical Hacking Workshop

Inaugural National Teaching Ethical Hacking Workshop

📅 Thursday 27 February 2025

📍 Abertay University, Dundee

The National Teaching Ethical Hacking Workshop (NTEHW), modelled on the successful Digital Forensics equivalent, seeks to address the unique challenges of teaching ethical hacking while fostering collaboration and innovation.

Teaching offensive cybersecurity is a resource-intensive endeavour. Educators face an uphill battle to provide an engaging hands-on student experience which meets the needs of the rapidly evolving nature of cybersecurity.

A dedicated workshop offers an invaluable platform for tackling these challenges collaboratively. The NTEHW aims to bring together academic instructors to share best practices, innovative teaching methodologies, and resources.

By fostering open discussions and knowledge exchange, the workshop strengthens the teaching community, ultimately enabling the development of more effective and compliant curricula.
