The UAH Cyber Force Incubator (CFI) is a cybersecurity workforce development program which recruits students from UAH, partner colleges and universities, and some Alabama high schools. CFI students are enrolled in an extracurricular cybersecurity and work place behaviors training program. Select students who pass the aforementioned training are nominated for security clearance. Students are hired to work on UAH cybersecurity research and development projects and students are placed into internships at government and industry partner locations.
