ASU students are part of the Shellphish cybersecurity team that is among winners of a recent AI Cyber Challenge semifinal hacking competition — earning the team $2 million and entry into next year’s DEF CON, the world’s largest hacking competition. Adam Doupé, an associate professor in the School of Computing and Augmented Intelligence, part of the Fulton Schools, and director of ASU’s Center for Cybersecurity and Trusted Foundations, leads Shellphish, which includes members from Purdue University and the University of California, Santa Barbara. For the competition, the team developed an automated tool that checks computer programs for vulnerabilities.
