The Middle Georgia State University (MGA) School of Computing recently received a $15,000.00 grant from the E.J. Grassman Trust to purchase equipment for its Cyber Forensics lab. The lab was initially funded as part of the National Science Foundation--grant-funded Southeastern Advanced Cybersecurity Education Consortium (ACE).
With the grant funding, the School of Computing has acquired state-of-the-art hardware capable of running essential forensics tools such as "Security Onion" and "Kali Linux," alongside the renowned forensics software, "Autopsy." With the equipment, the School of Computing will be able to offer dynamic and immersive educational experiences, leveraging this equipment and tools to provide specialized courses, summer camps, and training programs in cybersecurity and digital forensics.
