Here's a few thoughts for materials that may be good for your summer students to work on: https://www.hacksplaining.com/lessons - these are simple, fun intros to some of the most common types of attacks. Set up HTTPS with Let'sEnrypt: https://letsencrypt.org/getting-started/ Practice hacking Google's purposefully insecure site: http://google-gruyere.appspot.com/ (or see other similar things here: https://dst.com.ng/15-vulnerable-sites-legally-practice-hacking-skills/ Play around with AES symmetric key encryption: https://www.javainuse.com/aesgenerator
Play around with RSA asymmetric key encryption: https://www.devglan.com/online-tools/rsa-encryption-decryption
I've also copied in Ian Cook who is in charge of our Cybersecurity Student Academic Association. Ian, Mike Wirthlin and other ECEN faculty are working with their students this summer and wanted to have them do some hands-on cybersecurity-related activities. I've listed a few above that may be fun, but wanted to ask if you had some other pointers to websites or tools that may be good for them to mess around with. They range from Sophomores to Seniors in the ECEN program, but have little exposure to cybersecurity content. I just did an intro lecture on the CIA triangle and encryption basics.
