Panel on Security Education

Moderator: Jelena Mirkovic, USC Information Sciences Institute

Panelists:

  • Giovanni Vigna, University of California, Santa Barbara
  • Daniel Massey, Colorado State University
  • Peter Reiher, University of California, Los Angeles
  • Brent Kang, University of North Carolina at Charlotte

The security field abounds with practical problems that require hands-on experience for thorough understanding. Yet many security courses solely rely on textbooks and papers. The security curriculum varies greatly among schools. Many students and researchers utilize naive tests for their proposed security solutions because they lack practical experience.

This panel will discuss how to revitalize security education both at the local and at the national level. Panelists will share their experiences in designing and conducting hands-on exercises in security classes. They will discuss how to increase the use of testbeds and sound experimental practices in security education. They will also attempt to map out an agenda towards a well-rounded, standardized security curriculum.
