Students in hackers' crosshairs at IBM Cyber Range Center

In Cambridge, MA, there’s a room where disasters can happen daily, where battles are fought, vulnerabilities are discovered, questions are raised and answered, and untold amounts of data and personal information are at risk.

It’s a drill this time, but the point being made is that it won’t always be a drill.

The room is IBM Security’s X-Force Command Cyber Range. Students from Miami University's College of Arts and Science, College of Engineering and Computing and the Farmer School of Business were there as part of a Boldly Creative grant funded through the Cybersecurity proposal.

Students, along with their professors, took part in an exercise usually reserved for C-suite executives willing to spend thousands of dollars to attend. Those participating were: Zaobo He, assistant professor in computing science and engineering; graduate student Josh Morgan, and senior Hanzhou Zhang (both in computer science and engineering); Arthur Carvalho, information systems and analytics professor; and Farmer School Information Systems and Analytics seniors Kyle Kofsky and Yefe Soriano.

The two-day event is designed to help educate the next generation of cyber-security professionals and give them a taste of the constant war of information being waged through firewalls, hacks, backdoors, and terminals.
