The rapid development and rollout of mobile infrastructure and applications not only bring convenience to people's daily lives, but also give birth to threats that can jeopardize each individual's privacy and national security. Therefore, it is critical to train and educate the future workforce on the fundamental aspects of mobile security relevant to advanced cyberinfrastructure, and to improve their ability to identify, prevent, and respond to emerging threats. This project designs and develops a wide variety of intriguing and challenging hands-on laboratories that aim to create Eureka Experiences in reference to the "aha!" moment of understanding a previously incomprehensible concept. Such an illuminating learning experience is created by incorporating Inquiry-Based Learning (IBL) activities to hands-on laboratories. Overall, this project meets the pressing and essential needs in the Computer Science and Information Technology curricula, has a strong impact on developing the future workforce' core competencies and preparedness in mobile security related to advanced cyberinfrastructure, and helps advance national security.In this project, three types of hands-on laboratories are designed and developed: i) Exploratory; ii) Core; and, iii) Advanced. The primary purpose of exploratory labs is to spark the interests of high school and community college students from diverse backgrounds to pursue a career in cybersecurity in mobile ecosystems related to advanced cyberinfrastructure. Core labs help prepare both undergraduate and graduate students in STEM for productive cybersecurity careers by enabling enduring understanding of key security concepts and technologies through hands-on practice in an interactive setting. Advanced labs assist future research workforce development by not only introducing emerging security technologies and threats, but also inspiring student research in related fields. In addition, a universal lab platform that is affordable and flexible is designed and developed. This project helps develop core competencies in a number of areas relevant to advanced cyberinfrastructure including how to secure mobile devices and wireless systems, protect large scale and streaming data from mobile and other sources, ensure user privacy, and prevent intrusion. By engaging all stakeholders during the development process, this project increases the likelihood of wide adoption of the developed materials by academic and professional communities.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

移动基础设施和应用程序的快速发展和推出不仅为人们的日常生活带来了便利，而且还会产生威胁，这会危及每个人的隐私和国家安全。因此，至关重要的是，培训和教育未来的劳动力有关与高级网络基础设施相关的移动安全的基本方面，并提高其识别，预防和应对新兴威胁的能力。该项目设计并开发了各种有趣且富有挑战性的实验室实验室，旨在创造尤里卡（Eureka）的体验，以参考“啊哈！”。理解以前难以理解的概念的时刻。通过将基于询问的学习（IBL）活动纳入动手实验室，创建了这种启发性的学习经验。总体而言，该项目满足计算机科学和信息技术课程中的紧迫和基本需求，对发展与高级网络基础设施相关的移动安全性的未来劳动力的核心能力和准备就具有很大的影响，并帮助促进了国家安全。 ii）核心；和，iii）高级。探索性实验室的主要目的是激发来自不同背景的高中和社区大学生的利益，从而从事与高级网络结构有关的移动生态系统网络安全职业。核心实验室通过在互动环境中通过动手实践来持续了解关键的安全概念和技术，从而帮助STEM的本科生和研究生在STEM中为生产性网络安全职业做好准备。高级实验室不仅通过引入新兴的安全技术和威胁来帮助未来的研究劳动力发展，而且还激发了相关领域的学生研究。此外，设计和开发了一个负担得起且灵活的通用实验室平台。该项目有助于发展与高级网络基础结构相关的许多领域的核心能力，包括如何保护移动设备和无线系统，保护大规模和流媒体数据从移动和其他来源，确保用户隐私并防止入侵。通过在开发过程中与所有利益相关者互动，该项目增加了学术和专业社区广泛采用开发材料的可能性。该奖项反映了NSF的法定任务，并被认为是通过基金会的知识分子的智力优点和更广泛的影响来通过评估来支持的。
