The National Science Foundation's (NSF) Scholarship for Service (SFS) program aims to increase the number of information assurance and computer security personnel working at Federal agencies. Our project, completed at the NSF, increased the efficiency of the matching process between SFS graduates and these agencies. We inventoried knowledge, skills, and abilities (KSAs) related to information assurance and computer security at universities and agencies. We defined categories of KSAs and formed a matrix structure as a tool for SFS students.
