Cyber Yankee


About: 

Cyber Yankee (CY) is the National Guard’s (NG’s) annual tactical-level Defensive Cyber Operations (DCO) exercise focused on the New England region. The exercise evaluates a whole-of-government response to a significant cyber incident involving Critical Infrastructure and Key Resources (CIKR). CY includes participants from the Active and Reserve components of the US military, local/state/federal government, and civilian members of private industry. All participants work together to perform incident response, threat analysis, and cyber defensive operations as “Blue” teams against a cyber offensive or “Red” team performing as multiple threat actors on a critical infrastructure enterprise network environment. More information about past CYs can be found here (2023), here (2022), and here (2021).

Through our New England Chapter, the Military Cyber Professionals Association (MCPA) is proud to support this exercise and those participating in it! As a 501(c)(3) educational nonprofit charity, we are now seeking sponsors to help offset the cost of supporting this exercise with activities including a dinner on Tuesday 14 May and Distinguished Visitors (DV) Day on Wednesday 15 May 2024 on Cape Cod.
