It can be implemented into a work environment by an administrator to help organize the workloads of his/her employees and boost their productivity. It also works well for a group of students working together on a project, or even a single user trying to organize their own personal project. EZTask breaks down big, potentially overwhelming projects or ideas into a series of small, easier steps. It makes it easy to work with others by allowing you to share/assign some of these steps, and track who is or isn’t accomplishing their goals on time. It also makes the process of getting started on your work each day much smoother by clearly presenting each user with their individual goal for the day right when they login.

    Description/Abstract:
    According to Enjoy Safer Technology (ESET, 2019), 97% of people are unable to identify sophisticated phishing attacks. Though phishing attempts use scare tactics, website forgeries, or scams to increase their effectiveness and chances of success, research shows that the heart of the problem resides in a lack of effective training. Phishing Guard is a FREE, comprehensive, and easy to navigate web application designed to provide its users with the ability to receive interactive and effective training. In addition to creating a new approach to learning about phishing, this application will revolutionize the way these attacks are prevented. Phishing Guard has an easy to use menu system that includes short interactive quizzes, up to date videos, games, and more. These resources allow Phishing Guard to stand out among its peers, as it not only effectively decreases the success rate of phishing attempts but also increases user retention and awareness rate.

  • AutoDSO

    Description/Abstract:
    Companies are generally hyper-focused on releasing software quickly to meet strict deadlines or to stay ahead of the competition. This generally results in implementing security once software is near release. In applying DevSecOps best practices early, companies can not only catch and fix security problems early but train their teams in what to avoid in the future. For those organizations that implement DevSecOps, it is found to be implemented during the beginning stages of their software development projects. Most of which is focused on identifying and displaying the source of security misconfigurations. AutoDSO will base their security best practice requirements based off the OWASP DevSecOps model. AutoDSO takes DevSecOps a step further by focusing on establishing security baseline requirements and allowing the users to select metrics specific to their DevSecOps policies and procedures. The application generates an automated DevSecOps policy document which can be used by security analyst and given to auditors to monitor a company’s DevSecOps processes. This allows companies an efficient way to document their security best practices and ensuring that security becomes a part of continuous integration and continuous development (CI/CD) in their organization.

    Student Work
    Description/Abstract:
    Gaming has become less social than ever, with 67% of gamers strictly playing solo, while the rest are constantly connecting to games full of random players (Forbes). We want to create a way for gamers to reconnect with each other by finding out they have a similar taste in games as their friends. With the influx of new game releases, it can be difficult to keep track who wants to play what. Co-op Queue will be an application that has all new games imported into it, allowing users to tag which games they like. This marks whether or not they’re interested in playing that game. Then, once the user indicates that they are interested in a game, it will automatically inform them of their friends who are also interested in the game and give the user an opportunity to message them. Helping more people to fill their co-op queue.

    Description/Abstract:
    According to The Hechinger Report “On the eastern edge of Silicon Valley, school districts have gone into debt by, authorizing a $16.2 million sale of general-obligation bonds intended almost exclusively for laptop purchases.” (Marcus, 2019) CyberPods is a system designed to let high school classes delve into the world of Cyber Security, leveraging the cheap used hardware market. Designed using the existing Proxmox Virtualization platform, CyberPods provides a way of easy installation and operation of Virtual Machines, so the focus can be on learning about Cyber Security, rather than battling configuration files.

  • NetLock

    Student Work
    Description/Abstract:
    Five out of every six home router devices are inadequately updated, leaving sensitive data and connected devices unprotected from known vulnerabilities. The American Consumer Institute Center for Citizen Research released this information after the FBI sent out a warning in the 2018, stating hackers from Russia had successfully compromised hundreds of thousands of routers and were collecting user information. Users treat routers as plug and play devices where, once installed, they are left sitting with no further configurations made. However, blame does not fall solely on the user. ISPs and manufacturers fail to educate their customers of the proper steps to take after installation. NetLock was created with the user in mind, to act as a guide and walkthrough after router installation. Once connected to the router and opened via desktop application, NetLock will assist the user with proper setting configuration while providing network security best practices throughout the setup

    Description/Abstract:
    The Wireless Charging SmartBag is the ultimate solution for users on the go, who fail to find time to recharge devices. The combination of proprietary smart device connection cables, adapters, and battery banks into this SmartBag can substantially increase the freedom and organization of users of Qi enabled devices. Current market research shows no viable all-in-one solution that provides this ease-of-use. According to Cisco VNI, the number of networked devices per person is expected to jump to fourteen by 2022. This paper discusses the work, validation, and development of the resulting fully inclusive system utilizing a mobile application to allow users to view battery percentage data for each registered device including the backpack itself, as well as the ability to prioritize device charging based on need and available charging capacity. Additional features include a SmartBag charging dock, GPS tracking, and Global Wifi HotSpot.

    Have you ever actually completed a New Year’s Resolution? Neither have we! According to Forbes, 80% of Americans set a New Year’s Resolution, but only 8% will actually complete their goal[1].

Purrsistent Pet provides this by making the user responsible for their own digital pet, and to care for it the user must make progress towards their goals. We’ve built this application on the fact that it is easier to motivate yourself when your new digital friend is relying on you, too, so please give it a try and improve yourself today!
