The Cyber Bowl is back! To spotlight Cybersecurity Awareness Month, UF has challenged nine other Florida universities to beat us on the virtual football field. The 2023 Cyber Bowl is an online competition, held Oct. 9 – Oct. 20. The Gators are competing for the title of State Champions against Florida State University, the University of Central Florida, the University of Miami, Florida Gulf Coast University, University of West Florida, University of North Florida, Florida International University, University of South Florida, and New College.
The Cyber Bowl consists of five questions, each related to social engineering. So, how do the Gators win?
The university with the highest percentage of faculty, students, and staff game players (based on their population number for each affiliation) wins. All that’s needed to register your entry in the game is a valid UFL.EDU email address. Every participating university is answering the same five questions. Just for playing in the Cyber Bowl, you’ll be entered to win a pair of tickets to the sold-out Florida-Florida State game on Nov. 25! UFIT will randomly select the winner from all game entries after the Cyber Bowl ends. You don’t have to answer the questions correctly for a chance to win. Just complete the entry screen after the questions.
To play, visit cyberbowl.security.ufl.edu anytime between Oct. 9 – Oct. 20 and answer the questions. Make sure to enter your GatorLink credentials at the end of the game, so your entry is counted for UF. Thank you for participating in this year’s Cyber Bowl… and GO GATORS!
