The Evidence Based Cybersecurity Training and Mentorship Program for Students (EBCS-TMPS) leverages an existing cyberinfrastructure to prepare students to become effective cybersecurity and law enforcement researchers. Through this program, students are exposed to theoretical knowledge, practical skills, and hands-on experience that are most sought by governmental, industrial and law enforcement organizations. This is accomplished using a standalone cyberinfrastructure created and maintained by researchers and practitioners in the Evidence Based Cybersecurity Research group in Georgia State University that enables the production of evidence-based cybersecurity research and supports the training of cybercrime researchers. Among ultimate benefits are improved cybersecurity and a more secure and crime-free online environment.The EBCS-TMPS engages academics and practicing cybersecurity professionals as co-creators of research outcomes. During a two-months-long summer workshop, existing and strong academic-industry-law-enforcement partnerships are leveraged to train 30 undergraduate and graduate students in the deployment of better scientific efforts aimed at advancing CI-enabled and reliable research. The training program implements a wide range of activities to deliver key methodological and technical skills that are necessary for developing a cost effective cybersecurity posture for organizations (for industry track students), as well as for enforcing policies and laws aimed at disrupting online criminal activities in an effective manner (for both industry and law enforcement tracks). The interdisciplinary team of educators (composed of Criminology, Computer Science and Computer Information System scholars) supports students’ development of knowledge in cybersecurity areas such as gathering and preserving evidence, implementing effective security policies, and technical aspects of security. The industry and law enforcement mentors support both the development of an industry-relevant curriculum for the EBCS-TMPS, and guided internships with their teams.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.

基于证据的网络安全培训和学生导师计划（EBCS-TMPS）利用现有的网络基础设施，使学生成为有效的网络安全和执法研究人员。 通过该计划，学生接触到理论知识，实践技能和实践经验，这些都是政府，工业和执法机构最需要的。 这是通过使用独立的网络基础设施来实现的，该基础设施由格鲁吉亚州立大学循证网络安全研究小组的研究人员和从业人员创建和维护，该基础设施能够进行循证网络安全研究并支持网络犯罪研究人员的培训。 最终的好处是改善网络安全和一个更安全和无犯罪的在线环境。EBCS-TMPS吸引学者和实践网络安全专业人员作为研究成果的共同创造者。 在为期两个月的夏季研讨会期间，利用现有的和强大的学术-行业-执法合作伙伴关系，培训30名本科生和研究生，以部署更好的科学工作，旨在推进CI支持和可靠的研究。该培训计划实施了广泛的活动，以提供关键的方法和技术技能，这些技能对于为组织（行业轨道学生）制定具有成本效益的网络安全态势以及执行旨在以有效方式破坏在线犯罪活动的政策和法律（行业和执法轨道）是必要的。跨学科的教育工作者团队（由犯罪学，计算机科学和计算机信息系统学者组成）支持学生在网络安全领域的知识发展，如收集和保存证据，实施有效的安全政策和安全的技术方面。行业和执法导师支持EBCS-TMPS行业相关课程的开发，并与他们的团队一起指导实习。该奖项反映了NSF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。
