THE BRIDGE, May 2023
Letter from the Editor-in-Chief
Dr. Jason K. Hui
Epsilon Delta Chapter
Dear IEEE-HKN Members and Friends,
This issue of THE BRIDGE magazine features current research efforts
on cybersecurity for critical infrastructure - assets, systems, and
networks that are so vital to society that their continued operation is
required to ensure its security, economy, health and/or safety, or any
combination thereof. This area is particularly noteworthy given the
rising threats of cyberattacks. We express our appreciation to guest
editor Dr. Cyril Onwubiko, a member of the IEEE Computer Society
Board of Governors, and the authors of the feature articles for their
expert insight on this important topic. This month's society spotlight
is also on the IEEE Computer Society, the largest among IEEE's 39
technical societies while our history spotlight traces the origin of
cybersecurity from the early days of the internet to the present day.
This issue includes highlights from the Pathways to Industry and
HKN TechX virtual conferences that were held over the past few
months as well as an announcement on this fall's Student Leadership
Conference. We also encourage you to read about the recipients of
the 2021-2022 IEEE-HKN Outstanding Chapter Awards and former
IEEE-HKN Student Governor Ashley Kuhnley, Lambda Beta Chapter,
winner of the 2022 Alton B. Zerby and Carl T. Koerner Outstanding
Student Award, all of whom were recognized at this year's ECEDHA
Annual Conference held in New Mexico, and the winner of the HKN
Best Student Paper Award at IEEE SoutheastCon 2023.
We are excited to share that THE BRIDGE is working with the IEEE
Spectrum along with THE INSTITUTE on ways to collaborate. This is
fitting since both are the top two most downloaded publications on
the IEEE App. Be on the lookout for content in future issues.
IEEE-HKN strives for effective communication through its various
channels, including our website, YouTube, Facebook, LinkedIn, and
this magazine. The Editorial Board welcomes your ideas and content
and can be contacted by email at info@hkn.org. And as always,
THE BRIDGE is available on the IEEE App (older archival issues can
be accessed in the Engineering and Technology History Wiki).
