Major and Minor Exploration Assignment<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For this assignment, I explored Cybersecurity and Data Science as my potential major and minor.<br>I learned how both fields connect through data protection, analytics, and problem-solving, and how combining them can open strong career paths in security analysis, threat intelligence, and data-driven decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Cyber Event Reflection \u2013 Navy Federal Credit Union Cybersecurity Presentation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>I attended a cybersecurity presentation hosted by <strong>Navy Federal Credit Union<\/strong>, where representatives discussed how large financial institutions protect sensitive member data and defend against cyber threats. The presenters explained the importance of strong authentication, network monitoring, and early threat detection in preventing fraud and unauthorized access. They also shared real-world examples of cyberattacks that target banks and credit unions, and how security teams respond quickly to contain risks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One key takeaway was how much financial organizations rely on both <strong>cybersecurity<\/strong> and <strong>data science<\/strong> to stay secure. Navy Federal uses data analytics to detect unusual account activity, identify patterns linked to fraud, and improve the accuracy of threat detection systems. This showed me how closely my interests\u2014cybersecurity and data science\u2014work together in real-world environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Overall, the event helped me understand the scale of cybersecurity operations in the financial sector and confirmed my interest in pursuing a career where I can use both data analysis and security skills to protect people and organizations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Resume<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>My resume reflects the education, skills, and experiences that are shaping my path in cybersecurity. It highlights my background as an Honors graduate from Denbigh High School and my current studies at Old Dominion University as a cybersecurity major. It also showcases the technical abilities, coursework, and real-world learning opportunities like the Navy Federal cybersecurity event that have strengthened my interest in protecting digital systems and analyzing threats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This resume represents the foundation I\u2019m building as I work toward a career where I can use both cybersecurity and data skills to make a meaningful impact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!selectors.core.file.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/taddi004\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39823\/2025\/12\/Resume-1.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Resume-1.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-d9fad652-38d1-4673-9528-40f7447de9d2\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/taddi004\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39823\/2025\/12\/Resume-1.pdf\">Resume-1<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/taddi004\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39823\/2025\/12\/Resume-1.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-d9fad652-38d1-4673-9528-40f7447de9d2\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Brief Context for the Presentation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In this presentation, I\u2019ll be discussing the importance of cybersecurity in our everyday lives and how it affects the way we use technology. I\u2019ll cover common security threats, why personal data protection matters, and practical steps anyone can take to stay safe online. This connects to what I\u2019m learning as a cybersecurity major and shows how these concepts apply both in school and in the real world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!selectors.core.file.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/taddi004\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39823\/2025\/12\/Presentation-Protecting-Our-Digital-World-1.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of Presentation-Protecting-Our-Digital-World-1.\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-02b02a15-c706-4ccd-9946-09923919c8ab\" href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/taddi004\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39823\/2025\/12\/Presentation-Protecting-Our-Digital-World-1.pdf\">Presentation-Protecting-Our-Digital-World-1<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.wp.odu.edu\/taddi004\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/39823\/2025\/12\/Presentation-Protecting-Our-Digital-World-1.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-02b02a15-c706-4ccd-9946-09923919c8ab\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>1.
