Description
The goal of cybersecurity is to assure correct and secure computer operations in the presence of known or possible adversaries. It is a computing-based discipline involving technology, people, information, and processes; it is also an interdisciplinary course of study that includes aspects of law, policy, human factors, ethics, and risk management that will include case studies and hands-on activities. This track draws heavily upon best practices established by the National Institute of Standard and Technology (NIST).
