Description

This is a Level 4 Information Systems (IS) course that builds students' awareness and knowledge of IS/IT security related issues occurring in cyberspace. It has a specific emphasis on the need for ethical viewpoints, approaches, and practices from a management perspective when addressing the multidimensional challenges and solutions posed by the IS/IT related security problems. The class will be conducted in a semi-formal workshop fashion.
