McAfee – Bletchley Park Trust ‘Design a Cyber Superhero’ competition winners
The McAfee and Bletchley Park Trust partnership
In October 2013, McAfee announced a major five-year partnership with the Bletchley Park Trust, whose mission is to preserve and develop the home of Britain's pioneering World War Two Codebreakers.
In June 2014, McAfee and Bletchley Park Trust unveiled the International Cyber Security Exhibition and Computer Learning Zone, located within the new Bletchley Park Visitor Centre in Block C. This
collaboration brings together two organisations highly committed to keeping people of all ages safe online.
At the new site, children and adults will be able to learn how the breathtaking achievements of the WW2 Codebreakers are relevant in today's war against cyber threats.

Online blog submissionCould that hero be McCyber!? Madam’s masterpiece meets E’s theories to form their character who I’m told started on the wrong side of the battle. Having been a caught hacking he knows how to think like the bad guys. He doesn’t need any weapons as he has spent so much time online he now has a smart chip embedded in his brain. His huge hands are due to all the muscles he’s built up in his fingers spending so much time speed typing. We think he’s the bad turned good guy for McAfee’s mission.
