CYBERSECURITY CURRICULA 2017

Аннотация

By all accounts, the world faces a current and growing workforce shortage of qualified cybersecurity professionals and practitioners. In fact, both government and nongovernment sources project nearly 1.8 million cybersecurity-related positions going unfilled by 20221 . The workforce demand is acute, immediate, and growing2 . In order to develop the required talent, academic departments across the spectrum of computing disciplines are launching initiatives to establish new cybersecurity programs or courses of study within existing programs. Whether developing full new programs, defining new concentrations within existing programs, or augmenting existing course content, these institutions need curricular guidance based on a comprehensive view of the cybersecurity field, the specific demands of the base discipline, and the relationship between the curriculum and cybersecurity workforce frameworks.
