Critical to the health and resiliency of the Internet is the underlying security of the systems that make our online world a reality. By bringing together leaders in cyber security, including leading-edge security researchers and implementers, globally recognized security-technology experts, and users from both the private and public sectors, the Network and Distributed System Security (NDSS) Symposium fosters information exchange among researchers and practitioners of network and distributed system security. The target audience (usually around 300 people) includes those interested in practical aspects of network and distributed system security, with a focus on system design and practical implementation. The February 2017 conference in San Diego will be the 24th NDSS symposia, demonstrating its longevity and its importance as the leading conference in network and distributed system security.Students often have limited sources of funds for travel to conferences and limited opportunities to interact with in-the-field practitioners. NSF financial support will assist nineteen (19) US-based graduate and undergraduate students so that they may attend this meeting. Each travel grant is intended to cover conference registration, lodging during the conference, and as much as possible of the student?s travel (e.g., economy airfare). Participation in symposia like the NDSS is a critical part of the students' educational experiences, providing them the opportunity to interact with senior researchers and to be exposed to leading edge work in the field. Regardless of the field, investing in the development of human capital is crucial for the future. Supporting and nurturing the next generation of network security experts, providing them with an opportunity to learn from and engage with established experts benefits the entire community. Each provides the other with lessons learned, fresh ideas, and infuses a spirit of collaboration among a rather small sub-section of the technical space.

对互联网的健康和弹性至关重要的是使我们的在线世界成为现实的系统的底层安全性。 通过汇集网络安全领域的领导者，包括领先的安全研究人员和实施者，全球公认的安全技术专家以及来自私营和公共部门的用户，网络和分布式系统安全（NDSS）研讨会促进了网络和分布式系统安全研究人员和从业人员之间的信息交流。目标受众（通常约300人）包括那些对网络和分布式系统安全的实际方面感兴趣的人，重点是系统设计和实际实施。 2017年2月在圣地亚哥举行的会议将是第24届NDSS研讨会，展示了其作为网络和分布式系统安全领域领先会议的悠久历史和重要性。学生参加会议的资金来源通常有限，与现场人员互动的机会也有限。NSF的财政支持将帮助十九（19）美国的研究生和本科生，使他们可以参加这次会议。每笔旅费补助金的目的是支付会议注册，会议期间的住宿，并尽可能多的学生？S旅行（例如，经济舱机票）。参加像NDSS这样的研讨会是学生教育经历的重要组成部分，为他们提供了与高级研究人员互动并接触该领域前沿工作的机会。无论在哪个领域，投资于人力资本的发展对未来都至关重要。 支持和培养下一代网络安全专家，为他们提供向知名专家学习和参与的机会，使整个社区受益。 每一个都为另一个提供了经验教训，新的想法，并在技术空间的一个相当小的子部分中注入了合作精神。
