Work in progress - Cybersecurity curriculum development initiated by public interests

The investigators are engaged in developing Cybersecurity curriculum and tutorial material that illuminate this essential issue from the public interest point of view. This concerns needs, priorities, and specific relevant technologies, based on sources published by the Federal government and public organizations. As a whole, the material will cover a complete 500-level (graduate, open to undergraduates) 3 credit-hours course, with a limited prerequisite in computer networks. The work mainly consists of compiling slides, to be downloaded by interested instructors from a dedicated Website developed by the investigators. The material was organized in a way that also facilitates the use of various parts of it as supplementary material to courses in business and management, computer science, electrical engineering and information systems. It is further intended to address a wide range of students´ populations and education institutes, including continuing education and institutes granting associate degrees
