MISSION:
The Institute for Security Technology Studies (ISTS) at Dartmouth College is dedicated to pursuing research and education for cyber security and trust.
ISTS strengthens homeland security through interdisciplinary research, education and outreach programs that focus on technology critical for cyber security and trust. ISTS nurtures leaders and scholars, educates students and the community, and collaborates with its partners to deploy technology to benefit our community and to better understand technology's impact on our security. ISTS research improves our ability to design secure computer systems and protect them from attacks, enables people and organizations to form secure trust relationships across networked computing devices, and addresses social, economic, and policy issues that arise in the development and deployment of such technology.
The ISTS is proud to be a member of the Dartmouth Centers Forum,
an alliance of Dartmouth's academic centers fostering campus-wide dialogue and
cooperative programming. ISTS is also a member of the Institute for Information Infrastructure Protection
(I3P), which is a nationwide consortium of leading cyber security research and
development organizations including universities, federally funding labs and
non-profit organizations. The goals of the I3P (www.thei3P.org)
are to address research and policy-related aspects of the vulnerabilities inherent
in the information infrastructure, bring experts together to identify and mitigate
threats aimed at the U.S. information infrastructure, and promote collaboration
and information sharing among academia, industry and government.
