ECSC 2017: The final ten on the home stretch!
Now, after a series of trainings, the final ten are ready for Malaga!
With the completion of the first phase of the national qualifying competitions in early June, under the auspices of the Department of Digital Systems of the University of Piraeus, the first stone was laid for the creation of the Greek team that will compete this year, for the second consecutive year, in the European Cyber Security Challenge 2017.
The qualifying challenges were created by members of GReunion with the goal, which was of course achieved to the maximum extent, of effectively covering all the prerequisites that the participants of our representative group should have.
Now, after a series of trainings, the final ten are here:
- Pavlos Kolios
- Giorgos David Tsekalas
- Anastasios Tsimpoukis
- Petros Lazaros Karolos Mantos
- Lefteris Touloumtzidis
- Giannis Zaxarioudakis
- Marios Gyftos
- Stratos Kaplaneli s
- Nikos Kamarinakis
- Fanis Dimakis

GReunion has also taken on the training threads with the aim that the team competes with the best possible equipment.
We remind you that this year's ECSC '17 will take place from October 30 to November 3, 2017 in Malaga, Spain. Greece will be present at the competition for the second consecutive year with a 10-member team of talented young people, aiming for an even higher position than the fifth place it occupied in 2016.
