Collaborative Research: Real World Relevant Security Labware for Mobile Threat Analysis and Protection Experience

虽然计算环境目前正在向移动计算迈进，但移动设备面临的安全威胁也在爆炸性增长。移动设备的普及和对其安全的威胁的显著增加，并没有伴随着足够的相关教育活动。尽管在全国范围内，将移动安全纳入计算安全教育的需求正在增加，但为教授移动安全而开设的课程很少，而且缺乏准备充分的可用学习材料来提供实践经验。为了满足这些国家的需求，该项目正在生产创新的移动安全实验室软件，以促进学生接触到这些问题，并为他们提供与现实世界相关的移动威胁分析和防护解决方案。该实验室帮助学生了解移动威胁及其相应的保护措施是如何生效的。学生通过移动设备体验移动安全知识，并实施在实践中可行的防护应用程序。该项目对俄亥俄州、佐治亚州和田纳西州三个学术机构的学生学习、教育资源、教师合作和发展的更广泛影响，以及对其他机构教师的影响。该实验室软件可以集成到许多计算机和信息安全课程中，并将在全国学术界公开和传播，以造福于有移动安全教育需求的广泛大学和学院。

While the computing landscape is currently moving towards mobile computing, the security threats to mobile devices are also growing explosively. The prevalence of mobile devices and the significant increase of threats to their security has not been accompanied by sufficient related educational activities. Though the demand for incorporating mobile security into computing security education is on the increase nationwide, very few courses have been initiated for teaching mobile security, and there is a dearth of well-prepared available learning material providing hands-on experience. To address these national needs, this project is producing innovative mobile security labware to promote the exposure of students to these concerns and to provide them with hands-on real world relevant mobile threat analysis and protection solutions. The labware helps students to know how a mobile threat and its corresponding protections go into effect. The students experience mobile security knowledge with mobile devices and implement protection apps that are workable in practice. The broader impacts of this project are on the improvements of student learning, educational resources, faculty collaboration and development at three academic institutions in the three states Ohio, Georgia and Tennessee, and the influence on faculties in other institutions. The labware can be integrated into many computer and information security courses and will be made public and disseminated in academic community nationwide to benefit a wide range of universities and colleges that have the need for mobile security education.
