商品描述

Let's be realistic here. Ordinary K-12 educators don't know what "cybersecurity" is and could probably care less about incorporating it into their lesson plans. Yet, teaching cybersecurity is a critical national priority. So, this book aims to cut through the usual roadblocks of confusing technical jargon and industry stovepipes and give you, the classroom teacher, a unified understanding of what must be taught. That advice is based on a single authoritative definition of the field. In 2017, the three societies that write the standards for computing, software engineering, and information systems came together to define a single model of the field of cybersecurity. It is based on eight building blocks. That definition is presented here. However, we also understand that secondary school teachers are not experts in arcane subjects like software, component, human, or societal security. Therefore, this book explains cybersecurity through a simple story rather than diving into execution details. Tom, a high school teacher, and Lucy, a middle school teacher, are tasked by their district to develop a cybersecurity course for students in their respective schools. They are aided in this by "the Doc," an odd fellow but an expert in the field. Together they work their way through the content of each topic area, helping each other to understand what the student at each level in the educational process has to learn. The explanations are simple, easy to understand, and geared toward the teaching aspect rather than the actual performance of cybersecurity work. Each chapter is a self-contained explanation of the cybersecurity content in that area geared to teaching both middle and high school audiences. The eight component areas are standalone in that they can be taught separately. But the real value lies in the comprehensive but easy-to-understand picture that the reader will get of a complicated field.

讓我們現實一點。普通的K-12教育工作者不知道什麼是"網絡安全",並且可能對將其納入課程計劃不感興趣。然而,教授網絡安全是一個重要的國家優先事項。因此,本書旨在突破常見的困擾,如混亂的技術術語和行業壁壘,為您這位教室教師提供統一的理解,以便教授必要的知識。這些建議基於該領域的一個權威定義。在2017年,負責制定計算標準、軟件工程和信息系統標準的三個學會聯合起來,定義了網絡安全領域的一個統一模型。該模型基於八個基本要素。該定義在這裡呈現。然而,我們也明白,中學教師並不是像軟件、組件、人類或社會安全這樣的深奧主題的專家。因此,本書通過一個簡單的故事來解釋網絡安全,而不是深入探討執行細節。湯姆是一位高中教師,露西是一位中學教師,他們的學區要求他們為各自學校的學生開設一門網絡安全課程。他們得到了"Doc"的幫助,這是一個奇怪的人,但是在這個領域是一位專家。他們一起通過每個主題領域的內容,互相幫助理解每個教育過程中的學生需要學習的內容。解釋簡單易懂,偏重於教學方面,而不是實際的網絡安全工作。每一章都是針對中學和高中觀眾教授該領域網絡安全內容的獨立解釋。這八個組件領域可以獨立教授,但真正的價值在於讀者將對這個複雜領域有全面而易於理解的整體概念。
