The Cadet Cyber Organization is an organization that aims to familiarize AFROTC cadets with cyber security methods and opportunities with the goal of increasing interest in the 17X Cyber Operations career field in the US Air Force. We present topics around cyber security and have labs correlating with the presented topic where members can interact and practice. Our lectures are made for cadets of any knowledge level and work up from the basics of cyber to more complex topics and hack the box like scenarios. Additionally, cadets interested in cyber related PDT's can ask more about the process as well as the experience at the PDT they may be interested in.
The Cadet Cyber Organization has the following objectives:
Raise the interest of cadets in the 17X Cyber Operations career field.
Expose cadets to the material included at the AFIT ACE and Rome, NY ACE programs.
Introduce and talk about relevant software such as VMWare, TCPView, Metasploit, Armitage, John the Ripper, Wireshark, and Nmap.

Participate in local hacking events to increase exposure to offensive and defensive strategies.
