Information security has become a critical concern of both government and industry, and numerous groups have independently called for more and better research and education efforts in computer security. During the first computer security education workshop (1997) attended by industry and government agencies, there was a clear call to action for universities to create programs in information security. In response to these demands, faculty members from several universities have been working to increase both education and research in the area of information assurance. This initiative proposes to build on the existing strengths of the faculty and universities involved by creating the Cyber Protection Center. The Center will be one of the first facilities dedicated to creating a simulated Internet for the purpose of researching, designing, and testing cyber defense mechanisms. The Laboratory will also be used to test key components of the critical infrastructure.

信息安全已经成为政府和工业界的一个重要关注点，许多团体都独立地呼吁在计算机安全方面进行更多更好的研究和教育。 在工业界和政府机构参加的第一次计算机安全教育研讨会（1997年）期间，有一个明确的行动呼吁大学创建信息安全计划。 为了满足这些需求，几所大学的教师一直在努力增加信息保证领域的教育和研究。 该倡议建议通过创建网络保护中心来加强所涉教师和大学的现有优势。 该中心将是第一批致力于创建模拟互联网的设施之一，用于研究，设计和测试网络防御机制。 该实验室还将用于测试关键基础设施的关键组成部分。
