The Institute for Information Assurance (IIA)
at Northeastern University
invites you to attend our 1st Annual Industry Collaboration Meeting on
November 3, 2006. This is your chance to learn more about our
quality research program and the range of education opportunities
being offered. The meeting will be held in Room 320 (McLeod Suites) in
the Curry Student Center on the Boston Campus of Northeastern University.
The Institute is an interdisciplinary effort between the College of Computer and Information Science and the College of Engineering. The major goal of the Institute is to develop new cross-disciplinary methodologies to provide robust and reliable storage and transmission of physically distributed information.
Our multi-disciplinary team will pursue problems from multiple perspectives:
- Improving network security that spans multiple network communication layers, including sensors, and wireless devices.
- Providing information data integrity that addresses threats such as viruses and insider attacks.
- Developing information infrastructure that considers both hardware and software system vulnerabilities. We combine a rich research program with a strong interdisciplinary educational program that will prepare technologists to be leaders in the field of information assurance.
