Critical Infrastructure Protection Information Assurance Fellowship

Abstract

This project leveraged ongoing IA/survivability research and a critical mass of collaborators to train, mentor, and develop three post-PhD Fellows into top-notch IA researchers/faculty. These researchers all now lead IA research efforts at Carnegie Mellon. Dr. Chenxi Wang joined CMU as a CIPIA Fellow, and the support helped her frame and launch her research program; she is now a research faculty at CMU. Dr. Chris Long joined CMU as a CIPIA fellow to shift his previous human-computer interaction research experience to a new focus: security-centric design for human-computer interfaces; he currently leads two such efforts at CMU and expects to soon take a job at the National Security Agency in this area. Dr. James Hoe became a CIPIA Fellow to augment his computer architecture expertise with computer security knowledge to initiate new research in hardware support for secure/trusted computing; as an Assistant Professor, he now leads research in this space. In summary, this CIPIA Fellows project has been extremely successful at meeting its original goals.
