Cyber Education (CyEd 2018) – Challenges and Opportunities
Cyberspace – an interactive domain of digital networks and controllers. Our interactions in a highly connected world have far reaching consequences. As more and more devices are connected to this digital network, issues of individual privacy, security of systems become more important. For the governments, it becomes imperative to provide a safe and secure environment for its citizens to conduct their daily lives, critical infrastructure to operate effectively and industries to flourish in a vibrant economy. A robust policy accompanied by a legal framework fit for purpose will enable a safe and secure environment. National strategy has quite rightly identified the importance of education in providing safe environment.
This conference aims to provide an ideal platform to discuss some of the challenges in developing appropriate educational programmes ranging from appreciation and awareness level to master level programmes. We are expecting active participation from all sectors including, government, police, industry, MOD, finance, health service, and national infrastructure. We would like to hear how others are addressing the challenges of Cyber education.
This event will attract delegates from industry, academia and the military.
