Vision Statement<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Cybersecurity Club envisions a collaborative and inclusive learning community that prepares students from all disciplines to meet the evolving challenges of cybersecurity through rigorous education, hands-on practice, and real-world engagement. Anchored in strong academic coursework, reinforced through peer-driven learning, and extended through participation in nationally recognized competitions, the Club serves as an essential educational pillar that bridges theory and practice. Our vision is to cultivate technically proficient, ethically grounded, and workforce-ready cybersecurity professionals by preserving a focused, education-centered environment that complements academic programs while adapting to the dynamic demands of the cybersecurity field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

Mission Statement<\/a><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The mission of the Cybersecurity Club is to support student learning in cybersecurity by complementing classroom instruction with hands-on activities, peer mentoring, and experiential opportunities. The Club fosters a collaborative environment where students reinforce technical knowledge, practice problem-solving, and engage in nationally recognized competitions and challenges. Through these efforts, the Cybersecurity Club helps students develop practical skills, professional confidence, and a strong foundation for careers in cybersecurity and related fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Shuyuan Metcalfe <\/strong>| <\/strong>Faculty Advisor | discord: @smho<\/strong>\"\"<\/a><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Shuyuan Metcalfe<\/a> is a faculty member in the Florida State University College of Communication and Information, where her work sits at the frontier of cybersecurity research, education, and practice. Her scholarship advances the emerging agenda of trusted human\u2013computer interaction, active cyber defense, and cyber forensics, with a particular focus on cyber insider threats, deepfakes, image manipulation, and the automated detection of computer-mediated deception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Metcalfe\u2019s research bridges human behavior and technical systems to address one of cybersecurity\u2019s most pressing challenges: how trust, deception, and manipulation unfold in digital environments. Her patented invention\u2014Systems and Methods for Detecting Deception in Computer-Mediated Communications (U.S. Patent<\/a> No. 11,714,970, issued August 2023)\u2014establishes a novel foundation for scalable, automated approaches to deception detection and signals new directions for human-centered cyber defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Central to her research agenda is the design of interactive systems as experimental protocols for studying deception, betrayal, and trust breakdowns in virtual organizations. She also develops active cyber defense exercises within simulated environments, creating immersive, decision-driven scenarios that allow students and researchers to engage directly with incident response, adversarial behavior, and defense strategies in real time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2010, Dr. Metcalfe founded the iSensor Analytics Lab<\/a>, a virtual research environment dedicated to advancing the study of human factors in cyberspace. The lab serves as a platform for interdisciplinary experimentation at the intersection of psychology, information systems, and cybersecurity, supporting both foundational research and applied innovation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As an educator, Dr. Metcalfe teaches doctoral seminars in information science and information systems research in organizations and society, along with undergraduate and graduate courses in cybersecurity, including introductory, advanced, and organizational information security. Across research and teaching, her work reflects more than two decades of professional experience in cybersecurity and a sustained commitment to shaping how the field understands\u2014and defends against\u2014human-centered cyber threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
