Raise Awareness: The club will work to increase awareness of cybersecurity issues within the WUST community and beyond, including local schools and community members. This will be achieved through workshops, seminars, and outreach programs.
Promote Safe Online Practices: By encouraging the adoption of safe online behaviors, the club will contribute to the overall digital security of the community.
