The computer has become a powerful tool for use by anyone. The Internet has opened new boundaries and
frontiers. Communication, expression of ideas, information, all are available nearly instantaneously. However,
as you can imagine, such a powerful tool can be used for bad things too. Computers can be vulnerable
to viruses, worms, Trojans, hacking, etc. As Americans rely more and more on computers the possibilities
and opportunities for abuse abound.
Students review what they already know and understand about malware. They examine cyber security issues ranging from a personal to national level. Students create and publish a Public Service Announcement (PSA) to inform others of the steps to prevent cyber security issues. Students accurately use domain-specific words and phrases in their PSA.
Students examine the issue of cyber terrorism. They identify ways that the Internet is used in acts of cyber terrorism and cyber warfare. They acquire and use domain-specific terms and concepts such as hacking, steganography, malicious code (i.e. viruses and worms) Students think critically and build upon others' ideas in group discussions. They devise preventative measures against cyber attacks.
