Cyber London and iCSS is proud to support UWS London Campus in CyberHack 2026, a national level cyber security hackathon bringing together the next wave of cyber talent in a fast paced, real world challenge environment.
The event will take place at the UWS London Campus Cyber and AI Innovation Centre on Wednesday, 3 June 2026, from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
University students from across the UK will form teams and compete against the clock to design and deliver innovative solutions to real world cyber security challenges in just seven hours.
Attendees can expect practical cyber security challenges, cross university collaboration, industry relevant problem solving, prizes, training, and networking opportunities.
Alongside UWS London and iCSS at the University of Kent, the event is supported by SOEBIT Cybersecurity, Cyber London, KMCC, Kent and Medway Cyber Cluster, and The Education Group London.
