Following the successful completion of Cyber Scouts Batch 1, which primarily engaged youth from South Punjab, CSOP (CSR initiative of CS Zone Pvt. Limited) expanded the program nationwide through Batch 2. This phase brought together participants from all four provinces, Gilgit-Baltistan, and Islamabad, marking a major milestone in the initiative’s growth.
The five-day online training engaged students, professionals, teachers, first responders, and responsible digital users who aimed to contribute to a safer and more resilient cyber ecosystem across Pakistan.
