This project expands the capacity of SBU and UH to produce high-quality professionals in information assurance and computer security that can make a definitive contribution towards the problem of protecting our nation's critical information infrastructure. SBU has put together one of the nation's strongest research programs in Information Assurance. SBU has been designated by the National Security Agency (NSA) as a Center of Academic Excellence in IA Education (CAE/IAE). Its IA education and research activities are coordinated by the Center for Cybersecurity. SBU currently offers several graduate level courses in IA, and offers information assurance concentrations at the Master's and Ph.D. levels. Moreover, these programs have been certified to meet the National Training Standard 4011 for Information Systems Security Professionals set by the Committee on National Security Systems (CNSS). This project expands the reach of the IA curriculum to the undergraduate level, and serves to train faculty from other institutions to develop similar educational programs in IA. Specifically, the objectives of the SBU component of this collaborative proposal are: (1) curriculum and educational material development, (2) faculty development at UH and other institutions, and (3) laboratory development. At UH capacity building occurs on several fronts: (1) building an outstanding concentration in computer security and information assurance by adapting and implementing the exemplary education materials, curricula, and courses in security and assurance already developed at SBU, (2) development of a computing environment similar to the one proposed to be built at SBU for teaching and research in computer security and information assurance, (3) development of new courses and course modules for computer security and information assurance courses, and dissemination through the World Wide Web, and (4) faculty development at regional institutions in the second year of the program.

该项目扩大了SBU和UH的能力，以培养信息保证和计算机安全方面的高素质专业人员，从而为保护我国关键信息基础设施的问题做出决定性贡献。SBU在信息保障方面建立了全国最强大的研究项目之一。SBU已被国家安全局（NSA）指定为IA教育学术卓越中心（CAE/IAE）。其IA教育和研究活动由网络安全中心协调。SBU目前提供了几个研究生水平的IA课程，并提供信息保证浓度在硕士和博士学位。程度.此外，这些方案已通过认证，符合国家安全系统委员会（CNSS）制定的信息系统安全专业人员国家培训标准4011。该项目将IA课程的范围扩展到本科水平，并为培训其他机构的教师开发IA类似的教育课程提供服务。具体而言，SBU组件的合作建议的目标是：（1）课程和教材开发，（2）在UH和其他机构的教师发展，和（3）实验室发展。在UH能力建设发生在几个方面：（1）通过调整和实施SBU已经开发的示范性教育材料、课程和安全与保证课程，在计算机安全和信息保证方面建立突出的集中度，（2）开发类似于SBU为计算机安全和信息保证的教学和研究而建议建立的计算环境，（3）开发计算机安全和信息保障课程的新课程和课程模块，并通过万维网进行传播，以及（4）在该计划的第二年，在区域机构的教师发展。
