CYRIN and the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) Create a Level 2 Exercise for a Virtual Cybersecurity Training Environment

CYRIN and RIT Create an Enterprise-level Exercise in a Virtual Training Environment

CYRIN and the Rochester Institute of Technology (RIT) have created a Level 2 Exercise that resides on CYRIN's virtual cybersecurity training platform. In this exercise, called "Configure an Enterprise Network," students must configure the firewalls and routers in accordance with the security policies of the organization. The firewalls and routers must be configured to implement policies related to how traffic to and from the internet and between different subnets is handled.

CYRIN has three levels of training - Labs, Exercises and Attacks - on its virtual, cloud-based platform. Level 2 Exercises are robust training exercises that challenge the student to work in a virtual environment to demonstrate proficiency with different scenarios with multiple cybersecurity tools that enhance training and mimic real-world scenarios. In this exercise, which looks at an enterprise network, students use pfSense, an open-source firewall and router used by thousands of enterprises and officially supported by Netgate. Students must be familiar with the pfSense console and web interfaces. Those unfamiliar with pfSense are encouraged to complete the CYRIN "Firewall Configuration with pfSense" lab before attempting this exercise.

This exercise was developed in conjunction with the Rochester Institute of Technology and their Global Cyber Institute. RIT used CYRIN's patented Exercise Builder tool to create several labs that CYRIN has licensed for use on the CYRIN platform. This exercise is also mapped to NIST NICE Specialty Areas or NIST NICE Work Roles listed below.

Specialty Areas:

Work Roles:

CYRIN is designed for the seasoned cybersecurity professional or the student new to the field. Inexpensive and tailored for a 24/7 schedule, CYRIN labs, exercises and attack scenarios allow for training in a virtual cloud-based environment 365 days a year. CYRIN is also an excellent way for entrepreneurs, small businesses, and others to test their software products. Nearly any operating system that runs on the Intel/AMD x86 or x86_64 architecture can be uploaded to CYRIN as an OVA file or installed directly within CYRIN using the Exercise Builder. To learn more about our labs and content, visit the CYRIN catalog page.

Denny’s Names Jayla Thornton Hungry for Education(TM) Scholarship Program’s National Winner

Jayla Thornton, a junior, political science major at North Carolina A&T State University, has been selected as this year's national winner of Denny's Hungry for Education™ Scholarship.

Thornton, a resident of Fort Washington, MD, received the top award out of a field of 2,444 applications, along with a scholarship for $5,000. Denny's, a longtime supporter of education at Historically Black Colleges & Universities, partnered with the Tom Joyner Foundation for this year's award. 

"There were thousands of phenomenal submissions, but Jayla's essay truly rose to the top," said April Kelly Drummond, vice president, diversity, equity and inclusion. "Jayla's creativity, intelligence, and commitment to her community jumped off the page, and we're thrilled to provide her with this award."

Thornton's winning essay proposed a major initiative, which envisions Denny's working to combat "food deserts" in her community. A food desert is a geographic area where affordable, nutritious and fresh food is hard to obtain, particularly for those without access to an automobile. As Thornton points out, despite being the third-largest city within the state, Greensboro, NC, has 17 of the 24 food deserts in Guilford County. Thornton, who plans to attend law school, recommends Denny's host an event in a centrally located neighborhood in Greensboro where residents can access fresh food from a farmer's market, mental health counseling from local organizations and receive information from other local social services and social justice organizations.

"This award means so much to me because it feels like a wonderful validation of my passion and hard work," said Thornton. "Denny's has been such a powerful presence in my community and I am looking forward to working with them for many years to come.

Denny's Hungry for Education™ (HFE) is a scholarship program that recognizes and rewards students who show initiative and creativity in helping Denny's bring communities together. Partnering with 11 leading, nonprofit, minority advocacy organizations, Denny's awarded over $354,000 in scholarships this year to deserving elementary, high school, and college students. Since its launch in 2011, the brand has awarded more than $2 million in scholarships.

This year's scholarships open on Sept. 1 and students can apply by going to www.dennys.com/hfe.
