2019 Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace PI Meeting

Barnard College, New York NY

Investigators

Abstract

This award supports development of the program for a two-and-a-half-day workshop to be held on Oct 27-29, 2019 in Alexandria, Virginia. This meeting brings together principal investigators from across the Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace (SaTC) program. The investigators identify topics and establish a workshop agenda, including speakers and panelists. Specific objectives of the PI meeting include: - to stimulate coordination and collaboration amongst SaTC researchers working on the projects in the portfolio; - to foster new collaborations between SaTC researchers and researchers in other disciplines; - to share experiences and learn from others' experiences in transitioning research into practice; - to support undergraduate research in SaTC researchers; and - to develop ideas and share methods for improving education, recruitment, and career development in cybersecurity. Building a strong community among SaTC researchers helps identify new research topics, avoid duplication of existing research, and improve educational opportunities for graduate students. This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
