Abstract

Over four summer days in 2017, cybersecurity students at the University of Maryland, Baltimore County (UMBC) analyzed the security of a targeted portion of the UMBC campus network, discovering numerous flaws, creating proof-of-concept exploits, and providing practical recommendations for mitigation. We report on this novel summer research study; its technical findings; and takeaways for students, educators, and Information Technology Departments.
