IT graduate students in teams of 3-5 will spend up to 300 cumulative hours to help solve a problem or opportunity of your choosing related to cybersecurity. They will synthesize theories and frameworks that can inform the understanding of the your problem, possible solutions, and the context, while evaluating the global, cultural, and organizational factors that impact the problem. Increased cyber-security can improve your compliance, protect your company data, or fight against viruses, worms, Malware, etc. At the end of the project the students will submit all their key findings or applications developed to your organization.

Project examples include:

• Analyze data from cybersecurity incidents
• Implement/Deploy new cybersecurity applications
• Penetration testing of new applications
• Assist with reviewing and creating cybersecurity policies
• Design & deliver cybersecurity awareness training
• Research & deliver a risk assessment for the organization
• Review technology architecture of an organization and deliver a report on how to improve
• Vulnerability analysis report
