Abstract
The Center for Trustworthy Scientific Cyberinfrastructure (CTSC / trustedci.org) is a NSF-funded project to provide cybersecurity leadership and applied research for the NSF scientific computing community. CTSC has engaged with nearly a dozen NSF project on cybersecurity challenges as well as producing best practices and hosting an annual cybersecurity summit for large facilities and cyberinfrastructure. This talk will cover lessons learned about cybersecurity for NSF science as well as CTSC's engagement with Hubzero on cybersecurity.
