Spear Fishing Detection Training with Gamification, Behavior, and Inclusiveness Design
NC-PACE also provides funds for Research Experiences for Undergraduates [REUs]. REUs provide undergraduates with an opportunity to build their research experience and connect with faculty and researchers.
Grant funds are supporting the following REU projects
-
Construction Cybersecurity Knowledge Graph Using Large Language Model
-
Hardware Building Blocks for Next-Generation Cryptography
-
Tracking Malicious Web Behavior Over Time
-
Reversing Electron Apps
-
Automated Web Measurements With VisibleV8
-
Measuring and Characterizing Zero Trust Network Access Adoption
