SGER: Grand Challenges in Cyber Security

提案编号：0820907 PI： Giovanni Vigna机构： 加州大学？Santa Barbara标题： SGER：网络安全大挑战提案摘要：这个探索性项目的目标是设计和运行第一次网络安全大挑战竞赛。 在四个可能的候选域，（一个安全的投票系统的发展，复杂的漏洞识别，消除垃圾邮件，和一个？防黑客？服务器），将选择一个用于初始竞争。从设计和执行这一初步的挑战所吸取的教训将用于设计和实施随后的contests.The想法的安全大挑战比赛的灵感来自非常成功的DARPA大挑战的设计的参与规则和标准选择一个？赢家？计算机安全大挑战是一项非常艰巨的奋进，也是本研究的重点。预计第一次携带比赛将在2009年的一次大型计算机安全会议上举行。迫切需要一个具有挑战性的比赛，将吸引公众的兴趣和激励研究界。

Proposal Number: 0820907PI: Giovanni VignaInstitution: University of California ? Santa BarbaraTitle: SGER: Grand Challenges in Cyber SecurityProposal Summary:The goal of this exploratory project is to design and run the first Grand Challenge Competition in Cyber Security. Among four possible candidate domains, (the development of a secure voting system, the identification of sophisticated vulnerabilities, the elimination of SPAM, and the design of a ?hackproof? server), one will be selected for the initial competition. The lessons learned from the design and execution of this initial challenge will be used for the design and implementation of subsequent contests.The idea for a security grand challenge competition is inspired by the very successful DARPA Grand Challenges The design of the rules of engagement and criteria for selecting a ?winner? of a computer security grand challenge is an extremely difficult endeavor, and is the part of the focus of this research. It is expected that the first carry competition will be held at a major computer security conference in 2009. There is a pressing need for a challenging contest that will attract the public interest and galvanize the research community.
