Testimonials

"For over 20 years we've been honored to participate in the CryptoCup that supports the inspiring work of the National Cryptologic Foundation.  We look forward every year to the networking opportunity, the laughs and especially The Spy Hole.  We may not be the best golfers, but we always have a fantastic time and trust that our annual donation helps the NCF inspire new cryptologists.  We're genuinely grateful for this tradition."

"It is a privilege to participate in the GDIT (previously Eagle Alliance) hosted Crypto Cup Golf Tournament. I have only missed one tournament in the past 24 years. This event is a great opportunity to network with both industry and customer partners.

The tournament is extremely well-run, and the food is always awesome. What makes this event truly special is that it raises money for the National Security Agency's National Cryptologic Museum. The Museum is a fantastic place that serves as a gateway to America's secrets, providing a peek into the people, equipment, and events that have played a role in cryptologic history."

"The annual Crypto Cup has become a tradition for most golfers in the industry. It almost feels like a reunion where we get together once a year with old friends and colleagues and talk about the glory days and catch up on what's new. It begins with the Mega Putt competition and ends with a fantastic lunch with raffle prizes and tournament winner celebrations. I have rarely missed a Crypto Cup and remember all the golf courses that have hosted it, starting with the old Fort Meade golf course, moving to Patuxent Greens to Compass Pointe, and to the most recent location at Waverly Woods. This is such a fantastic event that raises money for the National Cryptologic Foundation and we are fortunate to have so many generous donors and a sold-out participation that helps advance the interest in cyber security and cryptology."

"I have been participating in the crypto cup pretty much since the beginning of the tournament. It has been a great fundraiser for a great cause over many years. It is always fun to play in, is exceptionally well run every year, and is always a great place to network with people who share a common  interest in the Nations’ National Security. And thanks to all of those at the Eagle Alliance that have kept this great event going for so many years!"

"I was on a winning team from CyberCore several years ago - back in 2011. This was at the old Ft. Meade course. Also, back then there was an opportunity to play for a car on one of the Par 3 holes if you got a hole in one. This was always very exciting!"
