A huge thanks to the folks at StrataFusion for supporting the Cybersecurity Internship program in association with Merritt College that brought the USS Hornet, docked in Alameda, an amazing young talented intern.

We had a great experience with a cybersecurity intern from the Merritt College program.
Not only did we get a lot accomplished, but we also saw a young person grow leaps and bounds as they learned from our mentorship.
Completely rewarding all the way around.
