The student will analyze and evaluate both internal and external cybersecurity threats and learn to perform risk mitigation assessments utilizing industry best practices. Prerequisite: CYB 101 Introduction to Cybersecurity.
A focused study introducing the student to fundamental network security concepts, architectures, and protocols as related to network security. Cybersecurity policies, technical controls, current best practice guidelines, tools, and administration will be discussed as pertaining to the enterprise network environment. Prerequisites: CIS 345 Computer Networks, CYB 101 Introduction to Cybersecurity, AND CYB 220 Windows Security.
CYB 410Digital Forensics and Incident Response. F. Odd years3
An in-depth study of the science of digital forensics. This course provides hands-on exposure to digital forensics and incident response techniques used within an enterprise environment. Topics discussed will include cybercrimes, network intrusions, insider threats, employee technology misuse, forensic artifacts, forensic imaging, and using investigative forensic tools. A hands-on laboratory is included. Prerequisites: CYB 101 Introduction to Cybersecurity, CYB 201 Introduction to Linux, AND CYB 220 Windows Security. 324
CYB 430Intrusion Detection and Mitigation. Sp. Odd years3
An in-depth study of network perimeter security focusing on threats, network intrusions, mitigation efforts, and prevention. The student will be introduced to current intrusion detection methods focusing on intrusion detection tools, network traffic/packet analysis, and interpretation of intrusion detection anomalies. Prerequisites: CYB 201 Introduction to Linux AND CYB 390 Network Administration and Security.
An introduction to the basic theory and practice of cryptographic techniques used in cybersecurity. Topics include encryption (symmetric and asymmetric), message integrity, digital signatures, use authentication, key management, cryptographic hashing, common cryptographic protocols, and attacks on cryptographic techniques. Prerequisites: CIS 172 Computer Programming II AND MAT 101 College Algebra (or higher MAT).
This capstone experience should be taken during the last year of study of the cybersecurity major. The student will produce an individual project dealing with an approved cybersecurity topic. This work will be an original contribution of the student demonstrating a comprehensive knowledge of cybersecurity theory and operating practice. Prerequisites: CYB 390 Network Administration and Security AND senior standing. DBH Doctor of Behavioral Health
