CYSE 201S

Course Material

The major assignment I completed during this course was a Cybersecurity Professional Career Paper. I had to write a two-page paper that examines how professionals in this field rely on social science research and social science principles in their careers.

Another assignment I worked on was an Article Review. I chose to write a paper on cyber deviance among adolescents.

Lastly, I worked on a Cybersecurity Case Study paper. I decided to write about the MGM Resorts Social Engineering Breach, as it involved important elements of social cybersecurity in the days and hours leading to the breach.

I also worked on a Cybersecurity Presentation Assignment, Cybersecurity in Smart Cities. I cannot upload the video due to the file length limit, but I can upload the presentation itself.

In addition to these papers, I had to add the following three images and descriptors to my portfolio for the class.

An image showing the interconnectedness of Interdisciplinary professions, connecting to a variety of other disciplines.

This image depicts my understanding of Cybersecurity and the Social Sciences, where every discipline is connected.

An image showing a Venn diagram of the intersections between Cybersecurity, Information Security, and Social Cybersecurity

This image depicts my understanding of how Cybersecurity, Information Security, and Social Cybersecurity intersect within a more focused disciplinary context.

An image showing multiple human figures with lines drawn to one another.

This image, although less descriptive, depicts the more human element of Cybersecurity and the Social Sciences – one that literally cannot be ignored when talking about Cybersecurity in a social context.
