who we are

executive director: jacob boyce

A veteran teacher of Pittsburgh Public Schools and an Intelligence Analyst and Cyber Operations Specialist with the U.S. Army Reserve. Mr. Boyce found a unmet need in cybersecurity among secondary students in the Pittsburgh area. He started teaching a course on offensive/defensive cyber operations that turned into a competition aimed at secondary students called pps{CyberTacticsFest}, due to the growth of this competition he founded the CyberTacticsForge to offer his students more opportunities and provide more relevant and engaging content as well as to provide students in SW PA with more opportunities. Mr. Boyce hopes help grow local cybersecuirty talent in Pittsburgh and assist teachers across the county in doing the same in their area.
