Georgia Tech Students Claim Cyber Crown Once Again

A crowd of students, faculty, and staff greeted officials from the National Security Agency (NSA) in the Coda Building Thursday afternoon to celebrate Georgia Tech winning the NSA Codebreaker Challenge (CBC) for the second year in a row.

On top of the win, Georgia Tech had more students complete the challenge than any other college or university in 2022. Only 2% of the 4,734 participants completed the nationwide challenge that ran from August to December last year.

“You should be very proud of your accomplishment,” said David Hyde, NSA director of industry and academic engagement. “About 20% of our solvers were from Georgia Tech.”
