Cybersecurity Data Collection Research Assistant

The main objective of the project, focusing on cybersecurity data collection and labeling for vulnerability management, is to enhance the understanding and management of cybersecurity vulnerabilities. This project aims to engage students in the crucial task of gathering, analyzing, and labeling data related to cybersecurity threats and vulnerabilities. Problem to Solve: Students will be tasked with addressing the challenge of identifying and categorizing various types of cybersecurity vulnerabilities. This involves the collection of vast amounts of data from different sources, such as security logs, network traffic, and public vulnerability databases. The key challenge lies in accurately analyzing and interpreting this data to identify potential vulnerabilities. Expected Outcome: By the end of the project, students are expected to achieve the following outcomes: 1. Comprehensive Data Collection: Students should be able to gather relevant cybersecurity data from multiple sources systematically. This includes understanding where to find data and how to extract it efficiently. 2. Effective Data Labeling and Categorization: Students should develop skills to accurately label and categorize the collected data based on the type and severity of the vulnerabilities. This involves understanding different types of cybersecurity threats and their characteristics. 3. Vulnerability Analysis Skills: Students should be able to analyze the labeled data to identify patterns or trends that could indicate potential security vulnerabilities or breaches. 4. Reporting and Documentation: Students should be able to document their findings in a clear and concise manner, providing insights and recommendations for vulnerability management and mitigation strategies. 5. Awareness of Ethical and Legal Considerations: Students should understand and adhere to ethical and legal standards in data handling, particularly regarding sensitive or personal information. 6. Collaborative Skills: Given the complexity of cybersecurity, students should also learn to collaborate effectively, sharing insights and combining expertise to tackle multifaceted problems. The success of this project lies in its ability to equip students with practical skills in handling real-world cybersecurity challenges, enhancing their ability to identify, analyze, and manage cybersecurity vulnerabilities in various environments.

Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning Application

We would like to collaborate with students to apply the latest artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) techniques to our existing dataset. Students will develop an AI / ML model related to any of the aforementioned applications. This will involve several different steps for the students, including: Conducting background research on our existing products and the dataset. Analyzing our current dataset. Researching the latest AI / ML techniques and how they could be applied to our data. Developing an AI / ML model that provides unique outcomes or insights into our data. Providing multiple solutions that can be applied to solve the same problem.
