ORTSOC - The Nation’s First Cybersecurity Teaching Hospital is the heart of a new academic program in Cybersecurity at Oregon State University. Adapted from the clinical rotation model long used by our nation’s teaching hospitals, ORTSOC provides experiential learning opportunities for students through a year-long program which is embedded into the curriculum. Guided by experienced professionals, students in the program hone their cybersecurity skills by providing managed cybersecurity services to a consortium of under-served organizations across the region. For students seeking to start careers in cybersecurity operations, the clinical program offers a carefully structured opportunity to build an experiential bridge between the classroom and professional practice. During this talk, the co-founders of the ORTSOC will share an overview of the program, present education and service goals, and discuss the pros and challenges of a SOC-based clinical rotations model for cybersecurity education.
