Introducing the Principles of Cyber Security at an Undergraduate Level

摘要

With growing awareness to the vulnerabilities of computer systems and architectures, software engineers are tasked to change their approach to programming. Many major companies have recently been victims of cyber warfare attacks that have garnered public attention. The goal at the University of Illinois Springfield (UIS) is to augment the current undergraduate curriculum to encourage a more prominent security-centric approach to software development. At UIS, we believe that cyber security should not be a course that our students take, rather it should be an intrinsic attribute of many, (if not all) undergraduate computer science classes.
