Cyber Law

Students will obtain a wide understanding of constitutional, civil, criminal, and other legal issues that may emerge in the context of employment or citizenship in an increasingly cyber/digital environment.

This increased knowledge will assist students in effectively navigating and strengthening personal and professional choices as they go.Students will obtain a wide understanding of constitutional, civil, criminal, and other legal issues that may emerge in the context of employment or citizenship in an increasingly cyber/digital environment.

Through the removal of Blackboard, I lost the proposal for a cyber law that would enhance cybersecurity in the country. I wrote for the cyber literacy act being passed through senate as the time I wrote the essay it was being passed by the House of Representatives. The main theme of my paper was that through educating the population on cyber literacy the increasing rate of cyber attacks will lessen due to how much human error plays a role in cyberattacks. Two problems are taken down with the passing of one law but I also wrote about the NIST Framework for Cybersecurity, a law that I believe is necessary but needs further additions to be perfect.
