Today the Internet constitutes a critical infrastructure: an attack or disruption has the potential to cause serious damage to institutions supporting key resources, such as water, power, transportation, finance, emergency response, business operations and manufacturing supply chains. Consequently, there is interest in a myriad of interdisciplinary approaches to achieve increased security.The PI proposes to conduct a 2.5-day workshop for 20-30 invited participants in order to gain a deeper understanding of the challenges and potential solutions for a secure Internet. The workshop brings together experts in network design, cybersecurity, and policy, spanning industry, academia, and the government. The goal of the Ideas Lab is to explore pathways and find solutions for a secure Internet based on interdisciplinary approaches that take into account technology, social sciences, policy and education. The Ideas Lab will be coordinated by a five-member Steering Committee composed of leading experts and the PI. In addition, expert facilitators will be used to create a highly productive workshop that will be tailored to achieve the specific objective of finding solutions for a secure Internet.

如今，互联网构成了关键的基础设施：攻击或中断有可能对支持水、电力、交通、金融、应急响应、业务运营和制造供应链等关键资源的机构造成严重损害。因此，人们对采用多种跨学科方法来提高安全性很感兴趣。PI 建议为 20-30 名受邀参与者举办为期 2.5 天的研讨会，以便更深入地了解安全互联网的挑战和潜在解决方案。该研讨会汇集了来自行业、学术界和政府的网络设计、网络安全和政策专家。创意实验室的目标是基于考虑技术、社会科学、政策和教育的跨学科方法，探索安全互联网的途径并找到解决方案。创意实验室将由一个由五名成员组成的指导委员会进行协调，该委员会由顶尖专家和 PI 组成。此外，专家主持人将被用来创建一个高效的研讨会，该研讨会将量身定制，以实现寻找安全互联网解决方案的具体目标。
