Re: Quick Poll Results Follow Up - Student Workers in SOC

The University of Nebraska is using students (usually juniors and seniors) to handle triage of tier 1 security alerts 
in our SOC.  So far we have found them to be exceptionally reliable and talented.  They have identified several 
opportunities to incorporate automation and quick scripts that we were previously too overwhelmed to pursue.

Good Afternoon -

I really appreciated seeing the results of the Quick Poll on InfoSec.

It was very enlightening and could be helpful in growing our information security program.

I did notice the one comment at the end about a school using student workers in their SOC.

I'm interested in hearing from any institution who is doing this and what duties/responsibilities you are assigning to 
students.  I already use student workers in a non IT security area I manage so it might be another area to grow for me 
if it can be helpful.
