New Ferris State course explores concepts, tools to keep space systems, vehicles secure

Satellites and space cybersecurity, a first-year course in Ferris State University’s Information Security and Intelligence (ISIN) program, now represents a significant work in progress supporting the Center for Cybersecurity and Data Science.

Student researchers pursuing master’s degrees and upper-level students are working under the direction of Molly Cooper, an associate professor in the ISIN program. Leading the student research is Will Allington, a graduate student from Howard City, who says this seven-week course reviews space cybersecurity.
