Mason Competitive Cyber continues a winning tradition with a series of wins at CyberForge conference.

Mason researcher Vijay Shah has joined a $2 million project to develop a system to secure 5G Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) architecture, a collaboration between Mason and Virginia Tech, Penn State University, and Worcester Polytechnic Institute.

Two College of Engineering and Computing faculty members, Kai Zeng and Vijay K. Shah, are part of a project awarded $1.7 million by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration’s (NTIA) Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund.

The Andrew P. Sage Memorial Capstone Competition is a student-focused competition and an international assembly for the design of complex systems and a leading showcase for undergraduate design projects.

As plans for Mason Square progress, the Cyber Security Engineering (CYSE) department, the fastest growing department in the College of Engineering and Computing, is eager to leverage the space.

Cybersecurity experts from Mason’s College of Engineering and Computing are playing an important role in protecting American manufacturing automation and supply chains from cyber threats and designing better security into advanced manufacturing plants.
