New Cyber and Computer Sciences labs create hands-on learning opportunities
In the Department of Cyber and Computer Sciences, two new state-of-the-art labs and security resources are providing students high-quality learning spaces.
The Department of Cyber and Computer Sciences and The Citadel DoD Cyber Institute hosted a grand opening event on Tuesday, Oct. 29, for the two new labs: the CHARIoTS lab, which stands for Critical infrastructure Hands-On Access control Research and IoT Security, and The Citadel Security Operations Center, or C-SOC.
In the CHARIotS lab, students and faculty will use the space for conducting education and research for critical infrastructure protection against cyberattacks. In the C-SOC, cadets and students will be assisting The Citadel’s ITS department in real time.
The CHARIotS lab contains a Tiny Cyber Town, called an INCITE, or Industrial Control Innovative Training Environment Kit, and a LITE, or Light INCITE Training Environment Kit. Cadets in the cyber program demonstrated the equipment to event attendees.
