CMSY-954 Protecting The Virtual Office
Recent developments on the Internet, such as Social Web and Virtual Words, have improved our ability to communicate globally, while increasing our access to larger amounts of business information. In addition to these positive changes, we have also seen the Internet become a source of misinformation and various network security vulnerabilities. In this course, students will learn about both network and workstation level threats, and how to best protect against them. Familiarity with computer operating systems, security tools such as personal firewalls and virus protection, along with basic file management skills and touch typing are strongly recommended for success in this class.
