Georgia Southern Prof presents at NSA-CAE 2023 Symposium
Frank Katz, Asst. Prof. of Information Technology and Director of the Center for Applied Cyber Education, attended the NICE (National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education) Conference and the annual NSA-CAE (Centers of Academic Excellence) Symposium in Seattle, WA from June 6 – June 9, 2023. He attended the Symposium as Georgia Southern’s Primary Point of Contact (PoC) to the CAE Program.
On Thursday, June 8, he presented a 10 minute “Lightning Talk” entitled Student Perception of Cyber Resilience vs. Prevention, based on his previous research paper presented at the 2021 Conference on Cybersecurity Education, Research, and Practice (CCERP) at Kennesaw State University. The research was based on a discussion question given to students in IT 3530, Fundamentals of Information Systems Security, over a two year period. Data was updated to include student posts since 2021. Contrary to what some might believe, just over 55% of students felt that resilience, the ability to bounce back from a cyberattack, was more important than preventing one, or taking an even-handed approach.
