Cybersecurity Education for the Next Generation

To understand how cybersecurity academic programs are evolving, and in the process identify both challenges and emerging leading practices, IBM interviewed professors and department heads from 15 programs in six different countries. Study participants were selected from over 200 programs followed by the IBM Cyber Security Innovation initiative. To fairly represent a diversity of perspectives, IBM selected programs from various geographies with varying levels of maturity.

David Jarvis, from the IBM Center for Applied Insights, discusses their report, "Cybersecurity education for the next generation: Advancing a collaborative approach." He explains the three types of collaboration recommended for institutions that want to develop a cybersecurity curriculum and discusses three case studies from the report.
