Cyber Halo Innovation Research Program

CSUSB is the first higher education institution to join the CHIRP program, which brings together government, industry and higher education to provide students a direct two-year pathway to a cybersecurity career.

The university’s cybersecurity program was chosen because of its proven track record as a Minority-Serving Institution for its work in preparing a diverse population of students for cybersecurity and computer science careers.

Vincent Nestler (information and decision sciences) talks about the benefits of CSUSB students participating in the Cyber Halo Innovation Research Program, and Brian Levin (criminal justice) continued to be a source for news media covering the recent wave of hate- and extremist-related violence.
