We are thrilled to announce that our team represented Zetech University at the KAPS/Inter-University Hackathon and won the first prize in the CyberSecurity category.

The event was held at the Jomo Kenyatta University of Agriculture and Technology (JKUAT) on the 17th of November 2023. This was a challenging and rewarding event that brought together 16 universities and 26 finalist projects across 13 categories under the theme of Future-Tech Odyssey. We learned a lot from our fellow participants and mentors, and we are proud to showcase our project www.kweliguard.net as well as our skills and passion for cybersecurity.

We want to express our gratitude to the organizers, sponsors, judges, and everyone who supported us along the way. Thank you, Kenya Airports Parking Services, LTD, JKUAT, Kenya National Bureau of Statistics, Telkom, and Alteryx SparkED for making this hackathon possible and for providing us with an amazing opportunity to grow and network.
