“Although over 100,000 high school and college students have participated in CSAW over the past 16 years , it is much more than a global competition,” said Jelena Kovačević, dean of NYU’s Tandon School of Engineering, “CSAW is a cybersecurity bellwether, examining attack-and-parry scenarios being played out across the world today, and exploring new vulnerabilities in areas like machine learning, 3D printing and integrated circuits that may not yet be on defenders' radars. Additionally, CSAW engages students, ignites research and ultimately supports the community, not least because of its role as a creative force in our school-wide commitment to STEM education. Congratulations once again to NYU student team leaders and faculty for ushering in CSAW for its 16th year.”

About the New York University Tandon School of Engineering
The NYU Tandon School of Engineering dates to 1854, the founding date for both the New York University School of Civil Engineering and Architecture and the Brooklyn Collegiate and Polytechnic Institute (widely known as Brooklyn Poly). A January 2014 merger created a comprehensive school of education and research in engineering and applied sciences, rooted in a tradition of invention and entrepreneurship and dedicated to furthering technology in service to society. In addition to its main location in Brooklyn, NYU Tandon collaborates with other schools within NYU, one of the country’s foremost private research universities, and is closely connected to engineering programs at NYU Abu Dhabi and NYU Shanghai. It operates Future Labs focused on start-up businesses in downtown Manhattan and Brooklyn and an award-winning online graduate program. For more information, visit http://engineering.nyu.edu.
