BoF Descriptions

Using Cyber Defense Competitions (CDC) as a teaching tool
Doug Jacobson, Iowa State University
Tuesday, January 6, 5:30 pm- 6:30 pm, Potomac 2

Cyber defense competitions are typically used to determine the best student team. At Iowa State we use them (5 a year) as a teaching tool. The session will explore using CDCs as a teaching tool at high schools, community colleges, universities and what is needed to support them

Security and Human Behavior
L Jean Camp, Indiana University
Tuesday, January 6, 6:30 pm- 7:30 pm, Potomac 2

Psychology, economics, sociology, anthropology as well as risk assessment and perception are increasingly informing computer security. How do we design and evaluate assessments using these tools? How does this change the standard threat/ solution technical model for security? And how can social science findings be translated into the construction of security technologies?
