This program will draw sustained attention to a key national security problem identified by NSA, the absence of a viable open-source security operating system. The objectives of the SELinux University Consortium are the same as those of the National Strategy to Secure Cyberspace. The objectives are to create commercializable R&D that will: • • • Prevent cyber attacks against the Nation's critical infrastructure Reduce national vulnerability to cyber attacks; and Minimize damage and recovery time from cyber attacks that do occur This project builds a consortium to lead the program with key representatives from the academic, government, industry and the open-source communities. The Consortium will strengthen the research, educational and development resources applied to building a Secure OS based on SELinux. The Consortium will begin by completing SELinux and integrating it into a standard Linux distribution and will end with the creation of a broad, enduring constituency for secure open-source operating systems, including research programs, courseware and a model for integrating research into an existing opensource framework. The Consortium will consist of academic departments, open-source, industry and government groups interested in participation. The Consortium will fund a variety of research, education and development projects to members. As one of the 50 Centers of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance education, The George Washington University’s Computer Science department and the Cyber Security Policy and Research Institute (CSPRI) provide proven leadership experience and capabilities to head the Consortium.
