论文摘要
这项研究研究了采用网络安全概念对IT课程的影响,并确定对学生对网络安全实践的了解和意识水平的潜在影响。为此,首次进行了一项试点研究,以衡量当前的网络安全意识水平。结果表明,学生对网络安全的了解不多。因此,提出了一种四步方法,以根据最新的网络安全课程准则(CSEC2017)在五个匹配的课程中注入相关的网络安全主题。有目的地选择了42名学生的样本,而没有任何网络安全知识,并将其分为实验组和对照组。实验小组的学生被要求在五个学期上连续五个课程。在每门课程中,小组都对注入的主题进行了预测试。然后,实验组教授了相应的注入主题。在每个课程结束时对两组进行后测试,并进行了t检验。结果发现,在14个注入的主题中,有11个先验和后测试的标记之间存在显着差异。这些令人满意的结果将鼓励大学将网络安全概念注入其课程中
This study examines the effect of adopting cybersecurity concepts on the IT curriculum and determines the potential effect on students' knowledge of cybersecurity practices and level of awareness. To this end, a pilot study was first conducted to measure the current level of cybersecurity awareness. The results revealed that students do not have much knowledge of Cybersecurity. Thus, a four-step approach was proposed to infuse the relevant cybersecurity topics in five matched courses based on the latest Cybersecurity curricular guidelines (CSEC2017). A sample of 42 students was selected purposively without prior knowledge of Cybersecurity and divided identically into experimental and control groups. Students in the experimental group were asked to take five consecutive courses over five semesters. In each course, groups went through a pre-test for the infused topics. Then, the experimental group taught the corresponding infused topics. A post-test was administered to both groups at the end of each course, and the t-test was conducted. The results found significant differences between marks of prior and post-tests for 11 out of 14 infused topics. These satisfactory results would encourage universities to infuse cybersecurity concepts into their curriculum
