The nature of higher education institutions means they must provide relatively open and easy access to resources and services while also protecting these resources from individuals with malicious intentions. Securing the campus network depends largely on end users – specifically students and employees. They have an important role to play in network security. In fact, by taking appropriate action to promote network security, end users will also benefit from increased protection against people looking to take advantage or exploit them personally. This course will explore why campus networks are targeted by hackers and the potential consequences a breach can have for end users and institutions. Best practices for protecting personal, web-enabled devices and safe online behaviors will build awareness of how to stay safe and secure online – which in turn will promote campus network security.This course was developed with subject matter support provided by the Labor, Employment, and Employee Benefits Law Group of the law firm of Sheehan Phinney Bass & Green PA.
