Description
The minor in Information Security Awareness (MISA) provides students with the awareness of information security in the context of people, processes and technologies with their impact on the student's own field. As information and cybersecurity are ingrained in nearly every aspect of our lives, there is substantial value in understanding the foundations of cybersecurity, its unique terminology, and how it can be applied in every discipline and industry. This includes understanding how information security is viewed and interacted with in organizations, societies, as well as personally.
