This project, augmenting capabilities for systematic analysis and evaluation of security vulnerabilities and developing new methodologies for prevention of security threats and attacks on information networks and networked systems, aims at improving end-to-end security of information infrastructures and realizing various security applications. The infrastructure services the following research:-Security vulnerabilities characterization, testing and measurement for end-to-end networks and information systems;-New anomaly detection algorithms utilizing outlier detection techniques;-New hardware implementation methodologies and evaluation for intrusion detection/prevention schemes;-New methodologies and non-proprietary test-suite for evaluation of performance of firewall and intrusion detection systems;-Innovative schemes for computer network forensics;-Analysis and prevention of security vulnerabilities and security monitoring with various wireless data networks.The enhanced capabilities will contribute in the development of new methodologies and algorithms for security-vulnerability characterization and prevention. Additionally, non-proprietary test suites and a benchmark for a standardized security assessment and evaluation should be created.Broader Impact: While servicing a large number of underrepresented individuals, this infrastructure should promote more exchanges facilitating more collaboration and contribute to hands on projects. Direct impact in retaining and retraining students should be felt from the new courses related to security analysis and evaluation and the summer internships.

该项目旨在增强系统分析和评估安全脆弱性的能力，并开发新的方法来预防对信息网络和联网系统的安全威胁和攻击，目的是改善信息基础设施的端到端安全，并实现各种安全应用。该基础设施服务进行以下研究：-端到端网络和信息系统的安全漏洞特征描述、测试和测量;-利用异常检测技术的新的异常检测算法;-入侵检测/预防方案的新硬件实施方法和评估;-防火墙和入侵检测系统性能评估的新方法和非专有测试套件;-计算机网络取证的创新方案;- 分析和预防各种无线数据网络的安全漏洞和安全监测。增强的能力将有助于开发新的方法和算法，以确定安全漏洞的特征和预防。此外，还应创建非专有的测试套件和标准化安全评估和评价基准。更广泛的影响：在为大量代表性不足的个人提供服务的同时，这一基础设施应促进更多的交流，促进更多的合作，并有助于实际操作项目。与安全分析和评价有关的新课程以及暑期实习对留住和再培训学生产生了直接影响。
