In July 2001, The National Science Foundation awarded funds to begin the first year of a multi-year Cyber Security and Information Assurance project. This project involves faculty and curriculum development, strengthening research and internship opportunities in Information Assurance, and the provision of technology for research in Information Assurance.
In September of 2002, October of 2003 and August of 2004 the project team was awarded additional funding from the National Security Agency. The funds supported student scholarships and capacity building enhancement in the Information Assurance program.
In October of 2004 additional funds were awarded from the National Security Agency for the study of and prototype development for an unclassified Covert Channel Analysis. This project also aided in enhancing research opportunities for 亚色影库 Information Assurance students and enhanced the Information Assurance program as a whole.
The efforts of the project personnel have also allowed 亚色影库 to establish itself as a Center for Excellence in Information Assurance in Education, which is part of the John P. Murtha Institute for Homeland Security.
Since July of 2001, more than $1.1 million has been granted to support the development of the Cyber Security and Information Assurance projects at 亚色影库.
