Curriculum innovation |
Laboratory infrastructure for IS teaching and research: Created an IT infrastructure including half of a Class C subnet of externally addressable IP addresses and the ismlab.usf.edu zone. The lab has been populated with computers being discarded by the college during the periodic refresh cycle. It is used to provide students with root level privileges on Solaris for various hands-on lab exercises in UNIX system administration, including running network services such as DNS and firewalls. This lab is run with no additional personnel or funding support from the college. Substantial knowledge acquisition effort has gone into developing the expertise needed to trouble-shoot student problems arising during lab exercises and other routing maintenance issues such as security. The lab also hosts the INFORMS IS Society’s teaching community portal. Web application projects: To introduce students to web 2.0 technologies, lab exercises have been developed where students install and customize web portals such as Wordpress (blogging), Joomla (CMS) and Mediawiki (Wiki) on UNIX. In summer 2007, 37 graduate students used the lab infrastructure above to setup more than 50 such web portals. STIGs: As part of the Information Security class, a lab exercise on the Defense Information Security Agency’s STIG (Security Technical Implementation Guidelines) has been created to leverage the above lab infrastructure. Students implement and verify over 30 recommended security controls to secure their Solaris system. Controls include enforcing password aging and complexity, suid/ guid bit detection, file-system auditing, establishing trusted relationships for passwordless authentication, acls etc. |
