This project addresses the need to train students, researchers, and practitioners on diverse hardware security and trust issues as well as emergent solutions. The primary goal is establishing a set of hardware security courseware and enabling adoption of these courseware through the development of an online Hardware Attack and Countermeasure Evaluation (HACE) Lab. The lab will be amenable for remote access and hence will help instructors adopt a curriculum aimed at training students with skills in various aspects of hardware security and trust including Trojan attacks, supply chain issues, side channel attacks, reverse engineering, piracy, and trustable design solutions. The HACE laboratory platform is expected to enhance existing cybersecurity curricula for both undergraduate and graduate students by including key hardware security topics. It will facilitate adoption and distribution of practical hardware security training modules with an easy-to-use interface that gives users unified access to experimental platforms, software tools for security analysis, metrics, and benchmarks. Students will be able to remotely access the specialized hardware, which are often expensive to acquire or require special training to install/use, to investigate various hardware-based attacks and countermeasures and to get practical understanding on these topics. The project can significantly impact the cybersecurity education through well-designed hardware security training modules and experiment platforms to universities and community colleges nationwide that will vastly increase the pool of well-trained hardware security professionals. The results of the project assessment and student learning outcomes will be shared with the educational community through the HACE website and the Trust-Hub web portal.

该项目旨在满足对学生、研究人员和从业者进行各种硬件安全和信任问题以及紧急解决方案培训的需求。主要目标是建立一套硬件安全课件，并通过开发在线硬件攻击和对策评估(HACE)实验室来实现这些课件的采用。该实验室将接受远程访问，因此将帮助教师采用旨在培训学生在硬件安全和信任的各个方面的技能的课程，包括特洛伊木马攻击、供应链问题、侧通道攻击、逆向工程、盗版和可信设计解决方案。预计HACE实验室平台将通过包括关键的硬件安全主题来增强现有的本科生和研究生的网络安全课程。它将促进实用硬件安全培训模块的采用和分发，该模块具有易于使用的界面，使用户能够统一访问实验平台、用于安全分析的软件工具、指标和基准。学生将能够远程访问专门的硬件，这些硬件的购买成本通常很高，或者需要进行特殊培训才能安装/使用，以调查各种基于硬件的攻击和对策，并对这些主题进行实际了解。该项目通过设计良好的硬件安全培训模块和实验平台，对全国大学和社区学院的网络安全教育产生重大影响，这将极大地增加训练有素的硬件安全专业人员的数量。项目评估的结果和学生的学习成果将通过HACE网站和Trust-Hub门户网站与教育界共享。
