Networking
Security is a Major Issue
The Computer Information
Science Programming and Networking Team, led by Michael
Warner of Coastline College, determined that networking
and security were very important in today’s business world.
College certificates and mini-certificates were developed
that reflect extensive training designed to build the security
skills. Curriculum was created for
the first course for networking professionals included: lecture
notes, outlines, and quizzes. An online component was developed
at Coastline College.
It was discovered that all
employees should undergo computer security awareness training
in order to prevent security breaches. Instruction
should include the following: (1) development of computer security
policies that are put into practice in every organization;
(2) discussion of periodic testing of an organization’s email
security policy; (3) practical hands-on manipulation of intrusion
detection software that has been designed to develop effective
security skills in the work environment; and (4) lab classes
taught using an instructor and lab assistance to reinforce
student learning and facilitate retention.
