"Drones are now becoming
ubiquitous devices. The technology is having a major impact, not
only on commerce, military strategy, but also for hobbyists.
Airplanes and automobiles are becoming more drone-like as well. Yet
drones are not just vehicles, they are complex computer and network
systems, and as such vulnerable to the myriad of threats and
vulnerabilities that require a cybersecurity perspective to secure.
This presentation will discuss why cybersecurity needs to be part
of any discussion of securing drones and why is should be part of
the cybersecurity curriculum."

"Traditionally information security has been
and is still considered a technical issue by most organizations.
This assertion is slowly dissipated as organizations are realizing
that peripheral security cannot defend against insiders and other
authorized users’ related incidents. According to a report by the
Ponemon Institute LLC (March 2012), 39% of security incidents
occurred due to negligence and 37% due to malicious attack most of
which are conducted by insiders. The report also states that
insiders’ attacks are more costly than attacks by external hackers.
The dilemma is that majority of these incidents are instigated by
organizational users who actual have been authorized to access the
data they are breaching. The literature divides these incidents
into two categories: misuse and compliance. Misuse refers to
unintentional actions that result in inappropriate use of computing
assets. Compliance refers to users intentions to knowingly
circumvent organizational policies."

"The purpose of this talk is to report on
our experience of using a Self-Organized Learning Environment
(SOLE) to facilitate our students learning of advanced networking
concepts. To set up a SOLE, students were divided into small groups
of 4~5 individuals and each group was given a virtual network
comprising of unconfigured virtual PCs, virtual routers and
switches, and a virtual firewall. The students were given the
freedom to learn collaboratively and configure the virtual devices
with as little (human) instruction as possible. We share our
experience in a manner that can serve to inform future SOLE-based
learning efforts and also a potential model for Information
Technology (IT) education. At the end of the talk, our
virtual lab and network will be
demonstrated."Jo0n
