Stony Brook University is partnering with RevBits, a Mineola-based cybersecurity software company, whose CEO, David Schiffer, is one of the first graduates of the university\u2019s computer science department. Terms of the deal were not immediately disclosed.
\nThe university\u2019s College of Engineering and Applied Sciences Department of Computer Science\u2019s Ethos Lab will integrate RevBits\u2019 cybersecurity offerings into the classroom. The partnership is designed to advance cybersecurity education and equip students with practical experience responding to modern threats in a realistic, controlled environment.
\n\u201cAt the Ethos Lab, our core mission is to push the boundaries of cybersecurity and privacy research while equipping our students with the practical skills required to tackle real-world challenges,\u201d Amir Rahmati, assistant professor of the university\u2019s computer science department, said in a news release about the collaboration with RevBits.
\n\u201cThis partnership with RevBits allows us to bridge the crucial gap between academic theory and industry application,\u201d Rahmati said.
\n\u201cBy giving our students hands-on access to a comprehensive security platform and integrating these advanced tools into our curriculum, we are preparing them to secure and defend complex production pipelines, providing invaluable experience for our students as they transition into the professional cybersecurity workforce,\u201d Rahmati added.
\nThe computer science department will use the RevBits cybersecurity platform to develop hands-on lab environments and support a cybersecurity-focused curriculum, helping students apply classroom concepts in practical settings. The platform simulates real-world cybersecurity scenarios across key areas such as protecting devices and email, managing system access, securing networks and detecting advanced threats.
\n\u201cWe are incredibly proud to participate in the educational process in general and specifically with Stony Brook University to help the next generation of cybersecurity professionals develop the necessary skill sets to battle the growing threat landscape,\u201d Schiffer said in the news release.
\n\u201cAdditionally, as one of Stony Brook University\u2019s first graduates of the Computer Science Department, I am honored to return in a collaborative and educationally enriching way,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
