Recruiting Children Ages 10-12 for the Pediatric Psych Lab Help your child earn $10 for playing memory games! Do you have a child, sibling, nephew/niece, etc. between the ages of 10 and 12?

Who?:
We are looking for healthy 10 to 12 year old children to help us test out games and activities before we try them in hospitals to help sick children.


What?:
Our activities include a heat test while playing different types of memory games. We want to know if our games are fun, what types of games work the best, and how these activities change the way children experience different sensations.

Where?:
The study takes place at the Pediatric Psychology Lab right here at UMBC.

How long?:
Participation in the study takes a little over an hour. We are currently offering after school hours, and limited weekend availability is also possible.

After participating, the child will get $10 and a small toy as a thank you!

We reimburse parents up to $10 to help cover transportation and parking costs.

If you are interested or have any questions, please email umbcpedspsyc@gmail.com

UMBC’s Haibin Zhang shares tips to secure data in the cloud

As more consumers rely on cloud-based data storage for everything from family photos to financial information, both experts and general users have voiced concerns about cloud security. In a new Conversation article recently published by Scientific American, Haibin Zhang, assistant professor of computer science and electrical engineering, explains precautions consumers can take to protect their files in the cloud.

Zhang explains that data stored and secured using commercial cloud storage systems is encrypted, which means that without the key, the information looks like a series of meaningless characters. Encryption keys have the potential to be misused, if they end up in the wrong hands, which can compromise the security of files stored in a cloud.

“Just like regular keys, if someone else has them, they might be stolen or misused without the data owner knowing,” says Zhang. “And some services might have flaws in their security practices that leave users’ data vulnerable.”

Zhang notes that some cloud services allow customers to maintain their encryption key themselves, which give the consumer the control in ensuring that their data remains safe. Other services keep the encryption keys internally and manage the security for their customers. He says that while each option has benefits, it is important to recognize that “some services might have flaws in their security practices that leave users’ data vulnerable.”

To keep data secure in the cloud, Zhang suggests using enhanced security features offered by cloud storage companies and taking additional precautions that are available to individual customers. He recommends that people use a cloud storage service that allows customers to encrypt their data before uploading it for storage, and to rely on services that have been “validated by independent security researchers.”

Read “How secure is your data when it’s stored in the cloud?” in The Conversation for Zhang’s additional recommendations on securing data on the cloud. The piece also appeared in Scientific American, and has so far been read nearly 20,000 times.
