Last October, Trusted CI convened the 2024 NSF Cybersecurity Summit. This yearly event provides a forum for National Science Foundation (NSF) scientists, researchers, cybersecurity, and cyberinfrastructure (CI) professionals and stakeholders to share effective technical practices and brainstorm solutions to everyday challenges facing cybersecurity environment professionals. When the community comes together for the Summit, they collectively learn from each other.
The 2024 Summit was held in person in Pittsburgh, PA, at Carnegie Mellon University. Over 250 individuals attended, including representatives of 44 NSF projects. Lorrie Faith Cranor, the Director and Bosch Distinguished Professor in Security and Privacy Technologies at the Cylab Security and Privacy Institute, delivered the keynote lecture and gave suggestions on how to develop the best cybersecurity practices for users.
During the four days of the Summit, attendees could choose from various workshops, training sessions, and seminars. These included topics such as:
- How to adopt the Trusted CI Framework
- How to apply Generative AI for cybersecurity defense
- How to manage cybersecurity and ransomware risks
