Higher education hasn't been immune to the ravages of the recession economy. Scholarships and tuition reimbursements are tougher for students to come by, and career opportunities have diminished.
That said, job opportunities for information security students abound - in both the private and public sectors.
In an exclusive interview, Dr. Peter Stephenson, CISO at Norwich University, discusses:
His school's graduate and undergraduate security programs;
How Norwich is preparing students for careers in information security;
Ways that businesses and government agencies can collaborate with educational institutions to better prepare students for productive careers.
Stephenson is a writer, consultant, researcher and lecturer on information assurance and risk, digital investigation and forensics on large-scale computer networks. He has lectured extensively on digital investigation and security and has written or contributed to 14 books and several hundred articles, in major national and international trade, technical and scientific publications. He is the Associate program director in the Master of Science in Information Assurance program at Norwich University and is a research professor at the National Center for the Study of Counter-Terrorism and Cyber Crime, also at Norwich.
