CyberSecurity Workshop Set for June 15-19 at UVI Campuses

Sandia National laboratories and the University of the Virgin Islands are offering a CyberSecurity Workshop that will be held from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on June 15-19, at UVI locations: Room TED 103 (St. Thomas) and Room RTP 129 (St. Croix).
The workshop will introduce basic techniques used by Cyber Security Incident Response teams during cyberattacks. Experts from Sandia National Labs will give participants an opportunity to walk through an actual attack using artifacts such as network packet captures and physical memory images. Open source tools such as wire shark, volatility and autopsy will be used to conduct forensics on memory images from systems that have been compromised.
The workshop will combine lectures and hands-on exercises that are designed for faculty, college students and IT professionals with basic knowledge of Windows and Linux operating systems, and programming experience. To follow practical labs, participants are required to bring a laptop with at least 8GB of RAM.
The workshop is funded by the U.S. Department of Energy, National Nuclear Security Administration with the support of Sandia National Laboratories and the Consortium Partners.
