The Graphics, Visualization \u0026amp; Usability (GVU) Center and the Georgia Tech Information Security Center (GTISC) have co-sponsored the event in which two-person student teams--including one security person and one usability person--identify both a compelling problem in usable security and a solution to that problem. A panel of judges then rates the student proposals, and the winning teams receive funding to implement their projects over the next year, working alongside faculty and industrial sponsors.\u003C\/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ESymantec, a global leader in information security and availability, recently agreed to sponsor a College of Computing team through a $50,000 gift in next year\u0026rsquo;s usable security \u0026ldquo;Tiger Team\u0026rdquo; competition.\u0026nbsp;Company representatives will be involved in the judging process and mentoring selected teams.
