Our team would like to say “thank you” to the students and faculty at the University of South Carolina for their collaboration during the Workshop on IoT Security, held recently in Swain Boating Center.
The workshop featured presentations from Citadel and USC students, and also reviewed the current/new projects, while allowing time for networking. Students and faculty from University of South Carolina and The Citadel jointly worked on this collaborative research project.
The workshop was funded by NCAE-C Research Grant from National Security Agency.
It was a wonderful experience for all involved and we look forward to exploring IoT Security in future workshops!
