Enhancing Cybersecurity Resilience for SMBs through Cybersecurity Health Checks The Center of Excellence in Cybersecurity Research, Education and Outreach at North Carolina A&TAgricultural and Technical State University aims to address the increasing cybersecurity threats faced by small- and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in the region. To do so, the University proposes a project that involves training senior cybersecurity students to conduct 'cybersecurity health checks' for SMBs in collaboration with industry professionals. The project seeks to enhance student experience, support SMBs, and potentially create a wider impact through adoption by other educational institutions. Project Merits: 1. Implementation: Conducting Utilizing AI-Driven driven penetration testing to conduct 'cybersecurity health checks' for SMBs. 2. Student Experience: Through hands-on cybersecurity health checks, students gain practical skills and expertise, enhancing their employability and readiness for the job market. 3. Support for SMBs: The project offers resources to Minority-owned SMBs, helping them safeguard their computer systems from cyber threats. The health checks provide recommendations to strengthen their cybersecurity posture. 4. Potential Wider Impact: The success of the initiative may extend beyond the University, with other educational institutions adopting the model. This creates a pool of skilled senior students contributing to national security by assisting businesses in enhancing their cybersecurity resilience. Project Impacts: 1. Comprehensive Cybersecurity Validation: Businesses receive cost-effective cybersecurity validation, identifying vulnerabilities and necessary investments to enhance their infrastructure's security. 2. Improved Cybersecurity Practices: The health checks promote better cybersecurity awareness and practices, potentially reducing the risk of cyberattacks for the participating businesses. 3. Diversity and Inclusion: The project prioritizes Minorityminority-owned businesses, fostering inclusivity and diversity in the field of cybersecurity. The focus of this project is minority owned businesses. Supervised by a professional, teams of students will perform Host Assessment, Web Application Assessment, Database Assessment, Wireless Assessment, Network Assessment, Account Management and Organization IT Process and Policy Review in compliance with NIST SP 800-171. In summary, the proposed project at North Carolina A&T State University addresses the critical need to enhance SMBs' cybersecurity resilience. By empowering students to actively contribute to regional business cybersecurity, this initiative benefits both students and businesses, fostering a secure and resilient cyber ecosystem. Cybersecurity Health Checks offers a comprehensive and cost-effective cybersecurity validation for a business’s infrastructure and identify where additional investigation and investment is requirednecessary to make the infrastructure more secure.
