1219451 This project supports a workshop proposal by Dr. Tarek Saadawi, CUNY City College, New York, NY for a US-Egypt Workshop: Cyber Security, Cairo, Egypt, December 2012. The Egyptian co-organizer is Dr. Ayman El-Dessouki, Electronics Research Institute, Cairo, Egypt. Many cyber security schemes are based solely on preventive or reactive, rather than proactive, measures such as patching of software or detecting already occurred attacks. Most of the network and information system security configurations are performed manually and require experts to monitor, tune security devices and recover from attacks. On the other hand, attacks are getting more sophisticated and highly automated which gives the attackers an advantage in this arms race. The workshop is to address important issues in cyber security and the protection of information systems and network infrastructure. The workshop will bring together leading researchers from academia, industry and the government for a comprehensive update on security and risk management research and development issues. The workshop will have scientists from USA and Egypt. The specific objectives of the proposed workshop are : To convene a gathering of US and Egypt scientists in the areas of cyber security in a workshop setting to explore the synergy between: o The current state-of-the-art in cyber security covering cryptology, network security and intrusion detection, software and operating system security, and software forensic techniques and tools; The current state-of-the-art in collaborative support technologies as they pertain to the support of collaborations between US and Egypt scientists; To identify specific US/Egypt institutions for faculty and graduate student exchange programs, with the intent that such initial institutions serve as models for wider exchanges; To identify specific areas of Undergraduate and Graduate Education which might be beneficial in the development of young scientists with specific interest in the Workshop areas; To disseminate the outcomes of the Workshop via the Internet and digital hardcopy (CDROM/DVD). Intellectual Merits: The research problems addressed in this workshop by leading scientists from US and Egypt will advance the research in this area. This workshop will help to identify specific US/Egypt institutions for faculty and graduate student exchange programs, with the intent that such initial institutions serve as models for wider exchanges.Broader Impacts: Research outcomes of this workshop will greatly benefit industries and educational institutes not only in the US and Egypt but other countries in the world as well. Students trained will acquire unique skills and expertise in the aspects of collaborations. The problems addressed in this project pertain to cyber security in general and information assurance and network security in particular. Thus the outcomes of this project can impact the society in the near future. The applications we target are very vital to the humans and the society. This proposal is supported under the US-Egypt Joint Fund Program where NSF supports the US side and the Government of Egypt funds the Egyptian side.

1219451该项目支持纽约州纽约市Cuny City College的Tarek Saadawi博士举办的一项研讨会，举办了美国 - 埃及的讲习班：网络安全，2012年12月，埃及的Cairo。 许多网络安全方案仅基于预防性或反应性而不是主动的措施，例如对软件进行修补或检测已经发生的攻击。大多数网络和信息系统安全配置都是手动执行的，要求专家监视，调整安全设备并从攻击中恢复。另一方面，攻击变得越来越复杂且高度自动化，这使攻击者在这场军备竞赛中具有优势。该研讨会是解决网络安全和信息系统和网络基础架构的重要问题。该研讨会将汇集来自学术界，行业和政府的领先研究人员，以全面了解安全和风险管理研发问题。该研讨会将有来自美国和埃及的科学家。拟议研讨会的具体目标是：在研讨会环境中召集我们和埃及科学家在网络安全领域的聚会，以探索以下方面的协同作用：o网络安全的当前最新技术，涵盖了网络安全，网络安全和入侵检测，软件和操作系统安全和软件效力技术和工具和工具和工具和工具； 当前的协作支持技术的最新技术与我们与埃及科学家之间的合作有关； 为了确定美国/埃及的特定教师和研究生交流计划的机构，目的是将这种初始机构充当更广泛的交流模型； 确定本科和研究生教育的特定领域，这些领域可能有益于对研讨会领域特别感兴趣的年轻科学家的发展；通过Internet和Digital Hardcopy（CDROM/DVD）传播研讨会的结果。智力优点：我们和埃及的领先科学家在本研讨会上解决的研究问题将推进这一领域的研究。该研讨会将有助于确定美国/埃及的特定教师和研究生交流计划的特定机构，目的是这样的初始机构充当更广泛的交流模型。BROADER的影响：该研讨会的研究成果将极大地使工业和教育机构不仅在美国和埃及国家中，而且在世界上也是如此。经过培训的学生将在合作方面获得独特的技能和专业知识。该项目中解决的问题涉及一般的网络安全，尤其是信息保证和网络安全。因此，该项目的结果会在不久的将来影响社会。我们针对的应用对人类和社会至关重要。该提议得到了美国埃及联合基金计划的支持，其中NSF支持美国方面和埃及政府为埃及方提供了资金。
