CSEC 2017 Supplement endorsed by ACM

|
In late 2023, an eight-member working group was formed to create the foundational cybersecurity education framework presented in this document. The working group included secondary and post
secondary educators with varying degrees of expertise in cybersecurity from high schools, community colleges, and universities across the United States.
|
|
This curriculum project involved a review of the Cybersecurity Curricula 2017 (CSEC 2017) guidelines and recommendation of learning outcomes that support foundational collegiate-level courses and upper level high school cybersecurity offerings, comparable to Advanced Placement (AP) content. The primary goal of this document is to provide a foundational cybersecurity education framework that can be implemented by both post-secondary institutions and high schools. These guidelines aim to bridge the gap between secondary and post-secondary education in cybersecurity to support broad transferability across institutions and ensure continuity for students.
