Dave Levin is faculty adviser for a course that prepares students to identify and halt internet threats.

Two of the six papers received honorable mention awards at the annual conference, which brings together information security researchers, practitioners, developers and users from around the world.

Michelle Mazurek is part of a multi-institutional team looking to better understand how consumers’ personal information is used to generate online targeted ads.

The award recognizes CyLab alumni from any CMU department that have had impactful achievements in security and/or privacy.

A new paper by researchers from the Maryland Cybersecurity Center and Google presents the first comprehensive framework that can be used to reason about at-risk users’ needs during the technology creation process.

The topics covered by the MC2 researchers involve security education, online protection for at-risk users, and "blocklisting"—a computer security protocol that lists items in a set that may require quarantine, exclusion or additional security scans.

The funding supports efforts to advance a randomized testing technique known as “fuzzing,” making it easier to write, debug, and reason about software and its specifications.

Andreea Alexandru’s research involves privacy-preserving protocols with applications in cyber-physical systems and machine learning.

The two-year fellowships offer an opportunity to work closely with MC2 faculty and graduate students in multiple areas of cybersecurity and privacy.

The initiative's goal is to create a robust and accessible pool of qualified cyber professionals that can assist CYBERCOM in its mission of defending critical U.S. information networks.
