Security Challenges Security is as strong as the weakest link Technology is constantly evolving Threats are constantly changing
Phishing, Malware, Botnets, Insider threat, etc. Underground economy Technology & threats are changing faster than
humans can learn Make security training meaningful Protect the network vs. Protect the information
More Security Issues
“Cyber” Bullying (K-12) Plagiarism & Copyright & P2P On-line Predators (K-12) Social Networks Protecting Privacy
