SEC400 – Senior Project

This course will culminate in the application of classroom knowledge and skills in security-based technologies to solve real-world problems and to develop research and project management skills. The student will work as part of a team to respond to a Request for Proposal from a medium size company in need of a cybersecurity solution encompassing one of the following: 1. Typical remote access security scenarios using detection and authentication/authorization technology, procedures, and process to prevent and identify intrusions. 2. Ransomware/Malware/RAT prevention and detection solutions and development of policies to help users identify correct security procedures during regular business activities to prevent malware infections. 3. Designing a security system to prevent and detect intrusion of an existing N-tier system by bad actors. The students will use the knowledge gained in each class session to complete the sections of their response to the Request for Proposal. The students will create a Final Report to be provided to the client along with creating an oral presentation that will be presented to the client.
