Advanced Cybersecurity Honors
Cybersecurity lays a foundation for understanding cyber law and policy, Linux, networking technology basics, risk assessment, cryptography, and a variety of cybersecurity tools – all the essential knowledge and skills needed to begin a future in the cybersecurity workforce. Not only does Cybersecurity introduce the breadth of cybersecurity concepts and skills to students, but it also prepares them to verify their technical know-how through the CompTIA Security+ certification.
The content was created by the Cyber Innovation Center (Cyber.org) and is based upon work supported by the US Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity & Infrastructure Security Agency under the Cybersecurity Education Training and Assistance Program (CETAP).
