Our Mission

The Texas Cybersecurity Society (TX/CSS) is a relatively new organization focused on fostering an interdisciplinary community for those interested in cybersecurity law and policy. There is much interest in cybersecurity law and policy at The University of Texas at Austin, and this interest is currently served by the Robert Strauss Center’s Cyber Fellows program. As a student organization with student leadership and without course requirements, TX/CSS seeks to supplement the Cyber Fellows program by providing student-led events, participation in cybersecurity policy competitions, networking opportunities, and informal social events. While TX/CSS is designed primarily to serve graduate students studying Law, Policy, and Information Technology, students from other disciplines and levels of study are welcome and encouraged to get involved.
