Our commitment to national cybersecurity excellence is matched by our dedication to human-centric safety standards.
A fundamental pillar of our technical and institutional integrity.
CCoE works with university students, young professionals, and participants in the Cybersecurity Olympiad who may include individuals under 18. We take our duty of care seriously.
This Safeguarding Policy sets out our commitment to protecting all participants from harm, abuse, exploitation, and neglect — and defines how CCoE staff, trainers, and volunteers are expected to behave to uphold that commitment.
Global Accountability Framework.
This policy applies to all CCoE programs, events, online platforms, and community spaces. It covers all staff, trainers, volunteers, advisors, and anyone acting in a CCoE capacity who has contact with participants.
First Priority — The safety and wellbeing of participants — particularly young people — is our first priority in all program decisions.
Training — All CCoE trainers, staff, and volunteers engaging directly with participants receive safeguarding awareness guidance before they begin.
No Risk — CCoE will never place a participant in a situation that puts them at unreasonable risk of harm.
Prompt Action — Concerns about the welfare of a participant will always be taken seriously and acted upon promptly.
Zero Tolerance — CCoE does not tolerate any form of abuse, exploitation, or harassment of participants by staff, trainers, volunteers, or other participants.
