This project supports students attending the 19th Workshop on the Economics of Information Security (WEIS), held in Brussels, Belgium, on June 15-16, 2020. 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. All students supported by the grant will be associated with US universities and/or US citizens. Funds will be used to offset costs including airfare and lodging. 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.

该项目支持学生参加2020年6月15日至16日在比利时布鲁塞尔举行的第19届信息安全经济学研讨会。WEIS是一项年度活动，作为信息安全跨学科学术的主要论坛，结合了来自计算机科学和电气工程、经济学、社会科学、商业、法律和政策等领域的专业知识。参与WEIS是与安全和隐私相关的跨学科兴趣的学生的教育经历的重要组成部分。WEIS为他们提供了一个与高级研究人员互动的机会，并接触到该领域的领先工作。本提案所要求的支助将使那些因差旅费而面临经济困难的学生能够参加WEIS。学生旅行补助金将支持大约12名研究生和本科生。所有获得资助的学生都将与美国大学和/或美国公民联系。资金将用于抵消包括机票和住宿在内的费用。该奖学金将支持论文出现在该项目上的高级研究生、来自代表性不足群体（包括女性、本科生和代表性不足的少数民族）的学生，以及首次进入WEIS的学生。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
