Cybersecurity 2 - Channel Surfing

Activity Overview

Inspired by Hedy Lamarr’s revolutionary work, this activity builds on the concepts learned in Activity 1 and introduces students to frequency hopping. Students will learn the method of hiding radio messages by transmitting bits and pieces over several radio channels until an entire message has been sent, making it very difficult for an eavesdropper to intercept them.
