This project addresses the need to train students, researchers, and practitioners on diverse hardware security and trust issues as well as emergent solutions. The primary goal is establishing a set of hardware security courseware and enabling adoption of these courseware through the development of an online Hardware Attack and Countermeasure Evaluation (HACE) Lab. The lab will be amenable for remote access and hence will help instructors adopt a curriculum aimed at training students with skills in various aspects of hardware security and trust including Trojan attacks, supply chain issues, side channel attacks, reverse engineering, piracy, and trustable design solutions. The HACE laboratory platform is expected to enhance existing cybersecurity curricula for both undergraduate and graduate students by including key hardware security topics. It will facilitate adoption and distribution of practical hardware security training modules with an easy-to-use interface that gives users unified access to experimental platforms, software tools for security analysis, metrics, and benchmarks. Students will be able to remotely access the specialized hardware, which are often expensive to acquire or require special training to install/use, to investigate various hardware-based attacks and countermeasures and to get practical understanding on these topics. The project can significantly impact the cybersecurity education through well-designed hardware security training modules and experiment platforms to universities and community colleges nationwide that will vastly increase the pool of well-trained hardware security professionals. The results of the project assessment and student learning outcomes will be shared with the educational community through the HACE website and the Trust-Hub web portal.

该项目旨在培训学生，研究人员和从业人员有关各种硬件安全和信任问题以及新兴解决方案的需求。主要目标是建立一组硬件安全课程，并通过开发在线硬件攻击和对策评估（HACE）实验室来实现这些课件。该实验室将适合远程访问，因此将帮助讲师采用一门课程，旨在培训学生在硬件安全和信任各个方面的技能，包括特洛伊木马攻击，供应链问题，侧渠道攻击，反向工程，盗版和可靠的设计解决方案。 HACE实验室平台有望通过包括关键的硬件安全主题来增强本科和研究生的现有网络安全课程。它将促进使用易于使用的界面的实用硬件安全培训模块的采用和分发，该界面使用户可以统一访问实验平台，用于安全性分析的软件工具，指标和基准。学生将能够远程访问专门的硬件，这些硬件通常很昂贵或需要进行特殊培训才能安装/使用，以调查各种基于硬件的攻击和对策，并对这些主题进行实际了解。该项目可以通过精心设计的硬件安全培训模块和实验平台对全国大学和社区学院的实验平台产生重大影响，从而大大增加训练有素的硬件安全专业人员的库。项目评估和学生学习成果的结果将通过HACE网站和Trust-Hub Web门户与教育社区共享。
