NCF #CyberChat: How Cryptology Helped Win the Battle of Midway
From the moment the Japanese Navy bombed Pearl Harbor, the United States was put on the defensive, that is, until the Battle of Midway. Join us for this National Cryptologic Foundation (NCF) #CyberChat for students & educators, as we discuss the critical elements that allowed the United States to turn the tide; from the widely discussed naval battle to the under-emphasized (but vital) role of US Navy cryptology. View a video preview of this #CyberChat via the link provided below.
Presenter Will Sciandra, a First Class Cadet (Senior) at the Virginia Military Institute, will also discuss with students how cryptology still plays a major role in cyber, where it’s headed, and how you can get involved just as he is.
This #CyberChat will be conducted via our Nepris online classroom. Please click the link below to get more details and to register for the Chat via Nepris. You will need a free Nepris account to attend the live Chat or view the recording.

About Us
The NCF's Vision is to strengthen trust in the digital ecosystem.
The NCF Mission: Advance the nation’s interest in cyber and cryptology as we:
Educate citizens to be cyber smart individuals,
Develop pathways for the future cyber and cryptologic workforce,
Engage and convene partners to address emerging cyber and cryptologic issues and,
Commemorate our cryptologic history and those who served.
The Foundation provides exceptional cryptologic programs, encourages young minds to learn about cryptology and to explore cyber-related career opportunities, hosts educational, cryptology-related exhibits at various community events, and honors the people— past and present—whose contributions to our national security protect and make possible our way of life.
The NCF also provides needed support to the National Cryptologic Museum (NCM), the first public museum in the U.S. Intelligence Community. Located adjacent to the National Security Agency (NSA) in Maryland, the NCM houses a unique and priceless collection of artifacts that represent our Nation's history in code making and code breaking, as well as a world class library of cryptologic media. The NCF has acquired rare and invaluable artifacts for the Museum and helps to support new educational and interactive exhibits.
The NCF is a 501(c)(3) organization.
