This course will introduce Computing and Information Science students and professionals to Information Security (e.g. computer and network security). Information Security plays a vital role in today's integrated networked information systems by securing an organization's critical data and systems from inside and outside threats. This course will examine general security concepts that include: communication security, infrastructure security, operation/organizational security, basic cryptography and steganography. Students will learn and apply defacto security best practices administering clients, servers and firewalls in a dedicated computer network laboratory. Through virtualization, students will have the opportunity to assess vulnerabilities and administrate Information Security on a multitude of operating systems. Presently the Computer and Information Sciences department has standardized on VMware as a virtualization platform. Distance learning students will need their own computer to complete the necessary coursework. Pre-requisite(s): CISS 100 Introduction to Computing and Information Sciences and (CISS 109 Python Programming or CISS 110 Programming and Logic I) with a final grade of "C" or better or permission of Department Chairperson.

This course will provide students with both an overarching top-down technical and business perspective of the Internet of Things (IoT) and a bottom-up perspective of programming IoT applications in a Raspberry Pi/Linux/Java environment. From the top-down, this course will look at the IoT and the emergence of physical/real- world things becoming visible and actionable via Internet and web technologies. The top-down exploration of existing IoT applications will allow students to understand what IoT technologies are available and how they are used in present environments. With this top-down understanding, students will program an experimental Linus-based Raspberry Pi platform in Java to implement a prototype that will be presented as a final project. NOTE: Distance learning students will be required to purchase their own Raspberry Pi.
