Most recently, I have developed a series of four security courses as a specialization within a master’s program. The Security Specialization emphasizes information systems security as a systemic process that includes policy, administrative, and technical components. While the curriculum is designed to have a managerial focus it distinguishes itself in two technical dimensions.
One, it is designed for people that have a technical background.
And two, it provides a significant amount of laboratory technical experience.
Our philosophy is that a security practitioner or manager that has built and run tools, like protocol analyzers and intrusion detection systems, will be a more effective professional than one lacking that experience.

Integrated Information Systems
4335 |
This course studies integrated information systems in an organizational context.
Specific topics includes the different informational resources used at different organizational levels as well as the interaction between organizational structure and information system architecture. Emphasis is placed on utilizing informational resources for competitive advantage. The course begins with an examination of a single operating system. Using Windows NT Workstation, the course examines relevant technical issues including installation, configuration, administration, and security. Later in the course, each of these general issues is examined within an organization context. 4335 VLab |
