The interplay between AI and cybersecurity introduces new opportunities and challenges in the cybersecurity of AI as well as AI for cybersecurity. However, operations and configurations of AI cyberinfrastructure with a security mindset are rarely covered in the typical curriculum. To fill this gap, this project intends to develop hands-on training materials and provide mentored training for trainees in engineering and science-related disciplines. By transforming and integrating training materials into the curriculum, this project benefits the potential cyberinfrastructure professionals in the community at large. This project has the potential to develop the research workforce in operating AI cyberinfrastructure with a security mindset to meet national and economic priorities. This project’s goal is broadening adoption of advanced cyberinfrastructure. This project develops a holistic technical approach for cybertraining: to identify, apply, and evaluate AI techniques which are inextricably related to well-defined operational cybersecurity challenges. The project intends to develop a Docker-based training platform that simulates and pre-configures a variety of scenarios to support hands-on AI cyberinfrastructure operations in the context of cybersecurity. Three levels of projects (exploratory, core, and advanced) are designed and integrated into the platform to help researchers and educators customize and develop for different education and training environments. The project broadens the access and adoption of advanced AI cyberinfrastructure while integrating cyberinfrastructure skills with the security mindset to foster inter-disciplinary and inter-institutional research collaborations. In addition to dissemination through publications and social media, the outcomes from this project have the potential to benefit the greater cyberinfrastructure community and beyond. This project is jointly funded by OAC and the CyberCorps program.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.

人工智能和网络安全之间的相互作用为人工智能的网络安全以及人工智能的网络安全带来了新的机遇和挑战。然而，具有安全思维的人工智能网络基础设施的操作和配置很少在典型的课程中涵盖。为了填补这一空白，该项目打算开发实践培训材料，并为工程和科学相关学科的受训者提供指导培训。通过将培训材料转换并整合到课程中，该项目使社区中潜在的网络基础设施专业人员受益。该项目有潜力培养以安全心态运营人工智能网络基础设施的研究队伍，以满足国家和经济优先事项。该项目的目标是更广泛地采用先进的网络基础设施。该项目为网络培训开发了一种全面的技术方法：识别、应用和评估与明确定义的操作网络安全挑战密不可分的人工智能技术。该项目旨在开发一个基于Docker的培训平台，模拟和预配置各种场景，以支持网络安全背景下的动手AI网络基础设施运营。该平台设计并集成了三个级别的项目(探索性、核心和高级)，以帮助研究人员和教育工作者针对不同的教育和培训环境进行定制和开发。该项目扩大了先进人工智能网络基础设施的获取和采用，同时将网络基础设施技能与安全思维相结合，以促进跨学科和跨机构的研究合作。除了通过出版物和社交媒体传播外，该项目的成果还有可能惠及更大的网络基础设施社区和更远的地方。该项目由OAC和CyberCorps计划共同资助。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
