<p>The cybersecurity industry has long needed a solid foundation for academia to build consistent and effective degree programs. There has been far too much inconsistency in cybersecurity and cyber-science education. In order to prepare the next generations of cybersecurity professionals, academic standards and curriculum must be defines and implemented. &nbsp;</p>
<p>This was the goal for the Joint Task Force on Cybersecurity Education (CSEC2017), established in 2015, to develop a guidance for curriculum content, applicable across global academic institution’s degree programs. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<h2><strong>Cybersecurity Curricula Report</strong>&nbsp;</h2>
<p>The <a href="https://cybered.hosting.acm.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/newcover_csec2017.pdf">Cybersecurity Curricula guidelines</a> for post-secondary degree programs are published and available for anyone to review!</p>
<p><strong>&nbsp;</strong><a href="https://cybered.hosting.acm.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/newcover_csec2017.pdf"><strong>https://cybered.hosting.acm.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/02/newcover_csec2017.pdf</strong></a><strong> &nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></p>
<p>The guidelines are a leading resource of comprehensive cybersecurity curricular content for faculty members of global academic institutions seeking to develop a broad range of cybersecurity offerings at the post-secondary level. &nbsp;It aligns with the <a href="https://www.nist.gov/itl/applied-cybersecurity/nice/resources/nice-cybersecurity-workforce-framework">NICE Cybersecurity Workforce Framework</a> and the <a href="https://www.nsa.gov/resources/educators/centers-academic-excellence/">National Centers of Academic Excellence in Cybersecurity</a> requirements. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<h2>&nbsp;<strong>The Goals of the Cybersecurity Curricula Program:</strong>&nbsp;</h2>
<ul>
  <li><em>To describe a vision of proficiency in cybersecurity,</em>&nbsp;</li>
  <li><em>To define a structure for the cybersecurity discipline by developing a thought-model that defines the boundaries of the discipline and outlines key dimensions of the curricular structure,</em>&nbsp;</li>
  <li><em>To support the alignment of academic programs with industry needs in cybersecurity,</em>&nbsp;</li>
  <li><em>To involve a broad global audience of stakeholders through continuous community engagement during the development process,</em>&nbsp;</li>
  <li><em>To develop curricular guidance that is comprehensive enough to support a wide range of program types, and</em>&nbsp;</li>
  <li><em>To develop curricular guidance that is grounded in fundamental principles that provide stability yet is structured to provide flexibility to support evolving program needs.</em> &nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
<p>A team of over 300 professionals collaborated to create the curriculum guidelines. I had the honor of being on the Industrial Advisory Board and contributing to the content. A job well done by everyone involved in the effort to build a framework for universities to establish consistent and comprehensive cybersecurity degree programs! &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>Alignment across global academic institutions for cybersecurity degrees represents a powerful capability for sustainable on-boarding and building skilled talent pools to protect technology, data, and people. &nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
<p>I encourage everyone to take a look at the recommended scope and framework for university-level cybersecurity programs. &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>
