Conference: SaTC 2.0 Workshop

NSF SaTC（安全和值得信赖的网络空间）计划多年来为许多创新研究，教育和过渡到实践项目提供了资金。尽管如此，物联网、人工智能、社交媒体、量子计算在后新冠肺炎世界的最新发展需要重新考虑NSF SaTC计划的未来方向和优先事项。德克萨斯大学达拉斯分校将主办NSF SaTC研讨会（名为SaTC 2.0研讨会），以使不同利益相关者之间的讨论，为未来的研究，教育和过渡到实践方向的SaTC计划提出建议。 该研讨会的更广泛的意义和重要性是：1）NSF未来对网络安全和隐私项目的投资对于推进技术水平和加强国家安全至关重要。因此，将NSF的投资与新兴的网络安全和隐私领域保持一致，对于满足当前的社会需求至关重要。 2)该研讨会包括一系列活动，主要针对教育未来的劳动力，并从事开发活动，将增加传统上代表性不足的群体的未来参与，因此，有助于在SATC计划中创造一个更加多样化和包容性的氛围，并加强未来劳动力解决国家重要问题的能力。研讨会1）允许跨学科的研究人员，教育工作者，来自学术界，工业界和政府在网络安全和隐私的所有领域的从业人员，走到一起，并确定战略方向的建议，为未来的SATC计划; 2）提供了一个开放的跨学科论坛的思想交流和增强凝聚力专家之间的所有领域的网络安全，政策和社会科学; 3）鼓励辩论，以汇集跨学科的观点对未来的SATC的建设性的混合。这个奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并已被认为是值得通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估的支持。

NSF SaTC (Secure and Trustworthy Cyberspace) program has enabled the funding of the many innovative research, education and transition to practice projects over the years. Still, the recent developments in internet of things, artificial intelligence, social media, quantum computing in a post-covid world require reconsidering the future directions and priorities of the NSF SaTC program. The University of Texas at Dallas will host the NSF SaTC workshop (titled SaTC 2.0 workshop) to enable discussion among different stakeholders to arrive at recommendations for future research, education, and transition to practice directions for the SaTC program. The workshop’s broader significance and importance are: 1) The future investment in cybersecurity, and privacy projects by the NSF would be critical in advancing the state of art and enhancing national security. Hence, aligning the NSF investments with the emerging cybersecurity and privacy landscape would be critical to address immediate societal needs. 2) the workshop includes a series of activities primarily targeted to educating the future workforce and engages in developing activities that will increase the future participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, hence, contributing to creating a more diverse and inclusive atmosphere in the SaTC program and strengthening the ability of the future workforce to address problems of national importance.The workshop 1) allows interdisciplinary researchers, educators, practitioners from academia, industry, and government in all areas of cybersecurity and privacy, to come together and determine the strategic direction recommendations for the future of the SaTC program; 2) provides an open interdisciplinary forum for cross-fertilization of ideas and enhancing cohesion between experts on all areas of cybersecurity, policy and social sciences; 3) encourages debate to bring together a productive mixture of interdisciplinary perspectives on the future of the SaTC.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.
