“HUNTINGTON — Marshall’s cybersecurity students have a new way to learn after university officials signed paperwork to enter a partnership with a security company and the state’s National Guard.
On Wednesday, Marshall University’s Institute for Cyber Security announced the partnerships with the West Virginia National Guard and Forge Security following a “live fire” cyber range training by the security company, which focused on industrial control systems. Cybersecurity students at Marshall followed along through those exercises to see how working practitioners respond to cyber attacks.
ICS brings together Marshall’s hardware and software engineers, forensic scientists, cybersecurity practitioners and policy experts to address emerging needs in cybersecurity through multidisciplinary, cutting-edge research, education and outreach programs.”
