(TNS) \u2014 As part of Marshall University\u2019s growing investment in cybersecurity education, the university announced Thursday its partnership with Intuit to launch a student-led Security Operations Center, giving students hands-on experience defending real-world systems.<\/p>\n

The announcement came during the second day of Marshall\u2019s annual CyberCon conference, a three-day event centered on the cybersecurity community with presentations and workshops for industry experts, students, educators and curious minds to collaborate on current developments in the cyber world.<\/p>\n
