Development of a Federal Cyber Force at the Air Force Institute of Technology

空军技术学院（AFIT）的信息安全教育与研究中心（CISER）正在建立一个SFS奖学金计划。作为国家安全局指定的信息保障教育学术卓越中心（CAE/IAE）， AFIT正在继续为信息保障（IA）合格专业人员的生产做出重大贡献，而SFS计划正在加强这一贡献。知识价值。AFIT SFS奖学金计划包括几个独特的组成部分。首先，AFIT将重点放在阿富汗境内的进攻和防御行动上。其次，AFIT通过技术解决方案强调理论和理论在实践中的应用，同时认识到IA政策和管理的重要性。第三，AFIT课程和研究议程侧重于政府和国防部的计算机和网络操作。学生将学习最先进的内部信息技术，以及如何调查和解决复杂的内部信息问题。更广泛的影响。CISER SFS项目的毕业生对拥有先进的IA知识和解决问题能力的联邦劳动力的形成产生了广泛的影响。AFIT的教育经验侧重于联邦政府和国防部的信息系统，并为他们提供关于最佳实践和信息基础设施漏洞的即时有用知识。

The Center for Information Security Education and Research (CISER) at the Air Force Institute of Technology (AFIT) is establishing an SFS scholarship program. As a National Security Agency designated Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance Education (CAE/IAE), AFIT is continuing to make a significant contribution to the production of information assurance (IA) qualified professionals and the SFS program is enhancing this contribution. Intellectual merit. The AFIT SFS scholarship program includes several unique components. First, AFIT is focusing on both offensive and defensive operations within the area of IA. Second, AFIT is emphasizing both theory and the application of that theory in practice through technical solutions while recognizing the importance of policy and management in IA. Third, the AFIT curriculum and research agenda is focusing on government and DoD computer and network operations. Students are learning state-of-the-art IA technology as well as how to investigate and solve difficult IA problems. Broader impact. The CISER SFS program graduates are having a broad impact on the formation of a Federal workforce that possesses advanced IA knowledge and problem-solving abilities. The AFIT educational experience is focusing on Federal Government and DoD information systems and is giving them immediately useful knowledge into both best practices as well as vulnerabilities of our information infrastructure.
