Body: 

More than 60 high school students were invited to join the 3-day residential engineering summer camp held on campus from 22 to 24 July 2015.  Organised by the Faculty of Engineering, students in the camp are engaged in a wide range of inspiring and interesting activities including hands-on programming lectures, project design competition, campus eco-tour, and visited labs of various engineering disciplines.

The hands-on lectures are focused on design and computing.  Students teamed up to build and drive a programmed engineering car for a competition.  At the end of the camp, they discovered the forefront of science from a tour of the Hong Kong Science Park, and learned from outstanding alumni who shared their successful start-up stories and career opportunities in engineering.  To imitate a real life of a university student, each participant lived with a roommate in the new hostel of Morningside College and dined in different restaurants on campus.

 “The Engineering Summer Camp organized by the Faculty successfully exposed our prospective students to the world of engineering and our spectacular campus environment.  They would have a better academic planning for undergraduate study at CUHK, and understand their interest in science, engineering and technology more.  It is also exciting for our people to interact with so many energetic future engineers during the camp.”  Prof. Anthony So Man Cho, Assistant Dean (Student Affairs) said.

惡意程式利用Google語音系統漏洞 Android機「自言自語」洩私隱

中大工程學院信息工程系助理教授張克環的研究團隊，首次發現Android語音助手系統的保安漏洞，他們設計出「VoicEmployer」惡意程式，可 操控仍然受密碼保護的手機。程式在啟動Google語音搜索後，經揚聲器播放惡意語音指令，讓手機自問自答，控制手機執行各種指示，例如致電指定號碼，或 以用戶身份發短訊、發電郵，更可查詢儲存在手機的留言、日程紀錄、當前位置等，掌握用戶行蹤。

Security loopholes in Android OS, social media putting 550m users' data at risk, Hong Kong researchers say

Over 550 million people worldwide are at risk of having their data hacked due to security loopholes in the Android phone or social media platforms they use, researchers in Hong Kong claim.  Hackers can use malware to tap into Google Voice Search, the voice assistant module that is pre-installed on some Android devices, without the owner needing to ever activate the software, according to Professor Zhang Kehuan at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK)’s information engineering department.

Android社交網 中大揭保安漏洞

網絡世界資訊萬千，但獲取資訊同時亦有洩密風險。中文大學信息工程學系的科研團隊發現Android平台的語音系統，以及社交網站存在重大保安漏洞，黑客可趁用家不察，竊取用戶個人資料及訊息，預計全球數以億計用戶受影響。張克環說，已向Google反映問題，Google亦已修復部分問題。用戶的手機若設於鎖定狀態，黑客便無法攻擊。團隊研究了十二個主流社交網站，發現當中八個有相關問題。劉指，已向相關社交網站供應商建議加強保安，並正申請基金，期望未來一至兩年內建設測試平台，讓社交網站及應用程式供應商，測試網站及程式的安全。
