Located in EA311, our Cyber Lab offers students and faculty a unique opportunity to test offensive and defensive cyber security strategies in a dedicated air-gapped network. We also offer a variety of different professional services to help organizations with testing, simulations, and more.
Our Cyber Lab also features demonstration sites which explore the importance of cyber security and understanding the risks that individuals, work places, and technologies can face. A perfect example of this concept is our Smart Home demonstration site; which you can learn more about under the "Demonstration Sites and Research Projects" section below.
Experiential Learning
Our lab offers many unique ways of providing experiential learning to our students. Each semester, we have students working for us as part of placements working on applied research projects, demonstration sites, and ongoing operations. This allows the students to apply a wide variety of skills and knowledge taught in our programs to real-life projects. Students are able to use the lab environment to apply the knowledge learned in class under the guidance of our expert cyber technicians.
