An Online Course for Mid-Career Professionals Addressing the Critical Balance between Cyberspace and National Security
February 4 - March 24, 2013
Examining one of the least understood yet most critical national security threats of our time, Syracuse University's Institute for National Security and Counterterrorism (INSCT) is offering the online courseCyber Security Law and Policy.
Designed by one the country's most innovative and interdisciplinary national security and counterterrorism programs and taught by Prof. William Snyder—an expert in the prosecution of terrorists, counterterrorism and the law, and computer crimes—Cyber Security Law and Policy analyzes the dynamically developing threat national security faces from globally networked computers.
This online course provides an invaluable benefit to mid-career professionals in both the public and private sectors. It engages students in a comprehensive and interdisciplinary study of the scope and gravity of cyberspace threats to US interests, and it provides them the knowledge and tools they need to balance upholding civil liberties while effectively addressing Internet security challenges.
The six-week course provides a balance of asynchronous sessions that can be done anytime and scheduled live sessions. Weekly discussions are conducted in real time, providing students an opportunity to offer their thoughts and reflections to Prof. Snyder and fellow students. No computer science expertise is required.
