Students are no longer securing static systems. They are securing autonomous actors. A-DSRM enables rapid artifact iteration, real-world validation, and integration of research and teaching. Students learn not just controls, but control systems. Graduates who can design security for systems that act, adapt, and fail. Cybersecurity education must evolve—or become obsolete. The pedagogical shift requires rethinking how we teach identity, authorization, and continuous verification in the context of autonomous systems.
