Technology Testing<\/h3>\n
ARC is supporting the Department of Defense (DOD) – Test Resource Management Center (TRMC) in its mission to plan, assess and test cyberspace technology development, acquisition, fielding, and sustainment of defense systems for the Major Range and Test Facility Base (MRTFB).
\nARC performs multi-disciplinary cyberspace technology applied research in partnership and collaboration with FIU\u2019s College of Engineering and Computing and College of Arts & Sciences. The Center collaborates with industry experts and infrastructure to support applied research in the areas of cyberspace and information assurance (IA) test technology development and gap analysis. ARC specializes in the following areas of cyber security.<\/p>\n
- \n
- Testing & Evaluation of Cyberspace technologies<\/li>\n
- Threat Analysis and Penetration Testing<\/li>\n
- Real Time Monitoring and Forensics<\/li>\n
- Malicious Software Analysis<\/li>\n
- Cyber Analytics and Visualization<\/li>\n
- Machine Learning<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n\n
Cyber\u00a0Research<\/h3>\n
FIU-ARC is conducting Hypervisor research with the purpose to of improving cyberspace monitoring and analysis. This research is being conducted using virtualization technologies to deliver automated and real-time analysis of cyberspace attacks on distributed systems. This approach enables quick deployment and fine-grained monitoring of malware including analysis of their effects on live systems as well as their propagation patterns within the compromised network.<\/p>\n
As cyber threats keep evolving, it is very important to develop new custom sensors and custom data analysis tools to understand the new threats, and to disseminate the new knowledge to cyber defenders. The Kernel Q Agent Testbed will develop custom sensors and data analysis tools for Kernel Q injection threat, a novel malware attack techniques<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

<\/a>In an effort to develop expertise in Cyber security and developing a Cyber security workforce, FIU ARC has engaged FIU science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) minority students in the areas of cyber space technology testing research work. This Cyber training program provides hands on research and internship opportunities to FIU students. The objective of this workforce development program is to create a \u201cpipeline\u201d of minority scientists and engineers specifically trained and mentored to enter the DOE\u2019s workforce in technical areas of need. Cyberspace Workforce Development Program has the following components:<\/p>\n![\"img_5507\"](\"https:\/\/eicdev.fiu.edu\/phparc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/IMG_5507-300x200.jpg\")
<\/a>ARC has secured state of art IT infrastructure to support systems developed for various clients like DOE-EM and TRMC-DOD. These systems are housed in the Cyberspace Lab and DOE-EM facility.<\/p>\n
