This project supports students attending the 18th Workshop on the Economics of Information Security (WEIS). WEIS is an annual event that serves as a leading forum for interdisciplinary scholarship on information security, combining expertise from the fields of computer science and electrical engineering, economics, social science, business, law, and policy. Participation in WEIS is a critical part of the educational experiences of students with interdisciplinary interests related to security and privacy. WEIS provides them an opportunity to interact with senior researchers and be exposed to leading work in the field. The support requested in this proposal will enable the participation of students who otherwise would face financial challenges to attend WEIS due to travel costs.The student travel grant will support approximately 12 graduate and undergraduate students. Funds will be used to offset airfare, lodging and conference registration fees. The grant will support advanced stage graduate students with papers appearing on the program, students from underrepresented groups including women, undergraduates and underrepresented minorities, and students attending WEIS for the first time.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

该项目支持参加第18届信息安全经济学研讨会（WEIS）的学生。WEIS是一个年度活动，作为信息安全跨学科学术的领先论坛，结合了计算机科学和电气工程，经济学，社会科学，商业，法律和政策领域的专业知识。参与WEIS是学生教育经验的重要组成部分，学生具有与安全和隐私相关的跨学科兴趣。WEIS为他们提供了与高级研究人员互动并接触该领域领先工作的机会。本提案中要求的支持将使那些因交通费用而面临经济困难的学生能够参加WEIS。学生旅费补助金将支持大约12名研究生和本科生。资金将用于抵消机票、住宿和会议登记费。该补助金将支持高级阶段的研究生与论文出现在该计划，学生从代表性不足的群体，包括妇女，本科生和代表性不足的少数民族，以及学生参加WEIS的第一次。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过评估使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准的支持。
