Winners of the 2020 IISP Cybersecurity Student Demo Day Finale

On Thursday, September 24, Georgia Tech Cybersecurity Ph.D. students presented their cutting-edge solutions to a panel of judges at this year’s Institute for Information Security and Privacy (IISP) Cybersecurity Student Demo Day Finale. This finale is a culmination of the six-month Demo Day Program sponsored by IISP. The goal of this signature Georgia Tech program is to introduce students to business mentors in the early research process, to boost their ideas from research labs to high-impact commercialization. 

As IISP’s live streaming partner, Tech Square ATL Social Club helped bring this annual event online. The Demo Day Finale was streamed to Tech Square ATL Social Club’s YouTube channel, allowing for people across the country who tuned in to ask questions and vote for the People’s Choice Award.
