Continuation of the University of Idaho SFS Program 2010

爱达荷州大学（UofI）继续参与服务奖学金（SFS）计划。这个项目背后的驱动力是持续需要培训信息保障（IA）专业人员进入联邦劳动力。通过将来自多个学科的学生分组到相同的实验室和研讨会中，UofI SFS计划提供了多样性和协同作用，使参与者能够欣赏IA的多方面，包括软件，硬件和管理的观点。该项目的目的主要是教育而不是研究，因此项目活动主要是为学生进入IA劳动力做准备。在UofI SFS计划中，IA学者拥有各种网络配置的实验室实践经验，包括可重新配置的攻击-防御场景，实时嵌入式系统以及监控和数据采集（SCADA）系统。通过这些实验室，IA学者获得的知识和见解，使他们能够设计和实施更安全和更有生存能力的系统。最终，该计划有助于改善社会，并为多元化的学生群体提供福利。对于社会来说，如果信息基础设施由了解信息保障的个人设计和操作，我们将拥有更稳定的信息基础设施。政府基础设施和决策者也是如此。这个跨学科的计划帮助学者学会欣赏计算机网络，计算机设备，审计日志和审计跟踪的相互联系，并吸引妇女和少数民族到UofI，EPSCOR学校。

The University of Idaho (UofI) continues its participation in the Scholarship for Service (SFS) program. The driving motive behind this project is the continued need to train Information Assurance (IA) professionals for entry into the federal workforce. By grouping students from multiple disciplines into the same labs and seminars the UofI SFS program provides a diversity and synergy that enables participants to appreciate the multifaceted aspects of IA, including perspectives from software, hardware, and management. The purpose of this project is predominately educational rather than research, so the project activities lie mostly in the preparation of students to enter the IA workforce. In the UofI SFS program the IA scholars have hands-on laboratory experiences with a variety of network configurations including reconfigurable attack-defend scenarios, real-time embedded systems, and Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) systems. Through these laboratories the IA scholars gain the knowledge and insights that enable them to design and implement more secure and survivable systems. Ultimately, this program is contributing to both improving society and providing benefits to a diverse student body. For society we would have more stable information infrastructures when they are designed and operated by individuals with an understanding of information assurance. The same is true for government infrastructures and policy makers. This interdisciplinary program helps scholars learn to appreciate the interconnectedness of computer networking, computer devices, audit logging and audit trails, and attracts women and minorities to the UofI, an EPSCOR school.
