When it comes to cybersecurity training, the Cybersecurity Manufacturing Innovation Institute, or CyManII, is focused on creating technical innovations that drive a cybersecure and energy dominant U.S manufacturing enterprise and workforce. CyManII is based at The University of Texas at San Antonio (UTSA) and includes the Center for Infrastructure Assurance and Security, the Institute for Cyber Security and the Cyber Center for Security and Analytics.
As part of the organization’s outreach initiatives, CyManII has unveiled its Mobile Training Vehicle (MTV), a state-of-the-art learning lab on wheels. The MTV provides all the advantages of the organization’s classroom and learning lab – the Cyber Range – but in a remote capacity, which gives manufacturers and university students the opportunity to detect, identify and effectively mitigate cyber threats.
On Feb. 26 and Feb. 27, Del Mar College students, faculty and staff got a chance to step inside and explore cutting-edge cyber technology the MTV houses, meet CyManII experts and see real-world cybersecurity tools in action. The public is invited to stop by, get inspired and discover how DMC is connected to the future of cyber innovation through its Computer Science Program while meeting with faculty!
The Mobile Training Vehicle from CyManII gives our campus a hands-on look at why cybersecurity is essential in today’s digital world. This event offers a unique opportunity for students, faculty, and the community to explore real‑world tools and techniques used to protect modern networks.
Xu adds: “It also highlights the strong Network Administration and Information Security (NAIS) programs we offer at Del Mar College, where we prepare learners for high‑demand careers. We encourage everyone to stop by, engage with the technology, and see how cybersecurity skills impact every industry.”
