MOOC in Cyber Security Economics Starting Soon
Making better decisions about security & IT (free)
https://www.lightbluetouchpaper.org/2016/10/04/security-economics-mooc/
This economics course provides an introduction to the field of cybersecurity through the lens of economic principles. Delivered by four leading research teams, it will provide you with the economic concepts, measurement approaches and data analytics to make better security and IT decisions, as well as understand the forces that shape the security decisions of other actors in the ecosystem of information goods and services.
Systems often fail because the organizations that defend them do not bear the full costs of failure. In order to solve the problems of growing vulnerability to computer hackers and increasing crime, solutions must coherently allocate responsibilities and liabilities so that the parties in a position to fix problems have an incentive to do so. This requires a technical comprehension of security threats combined with an economic perspective to uncover the strategies employed by cyber hackers, attackers and defenders.
The course covers five main areas:
- Introduction to key concepts in security economics. Here, we provide an overview of how information security is shaped by economic mechanisms, such as misaligned incentives, information asymmetry, and externalities.
- Measuring cybersecurity. We introduce state of the art security and IT metrics and conceptualize the characteristics of a security metric, its challenges and advantages.
- Economics of information security investment. We discuss and apply different economic models that help determine the costs and benefits of security investments in network security.
- Security market failures. We discuss market failures that may lead to cybersecurity investment levels that are insufficient from society’s perspective and other forms of unsafe behaviour in cyber space.
- Behavioural economics for information security, policy and regulation. We discuss available economic tools to better align the incentives for cybersecurity, including better security metrics, cyber insurance/risk transfer, information sharing, and liability assignment.
After finishing this course, you will be able to apply economic analysis and data analytics to cybersecurity. You will understand the role played by incentives on the adoption and effectiveness of security mechanisms, and on the design of technical, market-based, and regulatory solutions to different security threats.
What you'll learn
- Sound understanding of the economics of cybersecurity as a systems discipline, from security policies (modelling what ought to be protected) to mechanisms (how to implement the protection goals)
- How to design security metrics to capture information security issues
- How the design of effective policies to enhance and maintain cybersecurity must take into account a complex set of incentives facing not only the providers and users of the Internet and computer software, but also those of potential attackers

Get to know Joe Skowronski (SI/PASS Leader for CHEM 101)
Supplemental Instruction-Peer Assisted Study Session Leader
1. Tell us a little about yourself…
My name is Joe, and I’ve been a PASS/SI leader for three
semesters now. I lead sessions for CHEM 101 and 102 and PHYS 121. I come from Frederick County, MD, and I am a
junior and a Biochemistry and Molecular Biology major here at UMBC. I hope to
one day become a biology and/or chemistry teacher, and so am also studying for
that.
2. Tell us about how you are involved on campus.
Being an SI leader is a large commitment on my part, but
when I’m not leading sessions I play tuba in the UMBC Pep Band. I’m also a TA
in the Chemistry Discovery Center.
3. How and why did you get involved in being a SI/PASS
Leader?
I was referred to SI/PASS through a friend of mine who was
also an SI/PASS leader at the time, but I really became involved with it because
of my desire to teach. I’ve been seeking out teaching-related internships and
programs to further that end.
4. What is your favorite thing about being a SI/PASS
Leader?
Teaching is its own reward, and my favorite thing about
being an SI leader is being able to help out other students. There really is
such a great feeling that comes with helping others.
5. Why should students utilize SI/PASS Sessions?
Students attend SI/PASS sessions to better understand the
course material, but also to learn important study techniques. Students come
who either have difficulty with the material and need help or understand the material
and want to help others. SI/PASS will help all students.
6. What advice would you give students about how
to prepare for a SI/PASS session?
Bring any questions you may have about any of the material,
or even things regarding class logistics. Be prepared to help answer other
students’ questions as well, because the best way to learn is to teach.
7. When and where can someone work with you
through the Writing Center?
My Chem 101 sessions are Mondays and Wednesdays, 11:00-11:50
AM in UC 115.
Hope to see you there!

Customer Discovery & the Validation of Your Business Model
ENTR Workshop with Bob Storey TOMORROW--Oct 5, 12-1pm
The Alex. Brown Center is so excited to start off this semester with our first workshop tomorrow--October 5, from 12 - 1pm in SONDHEIM 103--with Bob Storey!
Learn how to begin a start-up the most efficient way possible using the Lean Start-Up Methodology, and learn valuable entrepreneurial concepts like Minimum Viable Products and Value Propositions. If you have a business idea, but don’t know where to start, this is the workshop for you.
By the time you leave us, you’ll be sounding and acting like a serial entrepreneur! We can’t wait to see you!
Description
Customer Discovery and the validation of the hypotheses that underpin your Business Model are crucial steps before a formal business plan is developed or extensive development is undertaken. In this workshop you will learn about the Lean Start-up methodology that is being applied to venture creation and will focus on the philosophies and techniques that you will use as you identify your initial target customer segment and corresponding set of value propositions. It will help you understand how to develop the "Metrics That Matter" across the full business model, and the role that a minimum viable product (MVP) plays in helping to find a true product market fit. A must-have technique to eliminate confirmation bias and to discover true customer needs.

The Alex. Brown Center is so excited to start off this semester with our first workshop tomorrow--October 5, from 12 - 1pm in SONDHEIM 103--with Bob Storey!
Learn how to begin a start-up the most efficient way possible using the Lean Start-Up Methodology, and learn valuable entrepreneurial concepts like Minimum Viable Products and Value Propositions. If you have a business idea, but don’t know where to start, this is the workshop for you.
By the time you leave us, you’ll be sounding and acting like a serial entrepreneur! We can’t wait to see you!
Description
Customer Discovery and the validation of the hypotheses that underpin your Business Model are crucial steps before a formal business plan is developed or extensive development is undertaken. In this workshop you will learn about the Lean Start-up methodology that is being applied to venture creation and will focus on the philosophies and techniques that you will use as you identify your initial target customer segment and corresponding set of value propositions. It will help you understand how to develop the "Metrics That Matter" across the full business model, and the role that a minimum viable product (MVP) plays in helping to find a true product market fit. A must-have technique to eliminate confirmation bias and to discover true customer needs.

Julie Ross elected to Global Engineering Dean’s Council
will serve three-year term on Executive Committee
October 3, 2016 by Megan Hanks
Dean Julie Ross of UMBC’s College of Engineering and Information Technology, has been named to the Executive Committee of the Global Engineering Dean’s Council. She will serve a three-year term on the committee, and will work closely with engineering deans from around the world to advance engineering education, research, and service globally. In her role on the council, Dean Ross will attend the annual conference of the GEDC in Seoul, Korea in early November.
UMBC’s engineering and IT programs and leaders have increasingly received national and international recognition, and become major players when it comes to innovating engineering and IT education, both in universities and in K-12.
In 2015, Renetta Tull, associate vice provost for graduate student development and postdoctoral affairs, was named one of just three global finalists for the prestigious GEDC Airbus Diversity Award,in recognition of her work to promote inclusion and diversity in STEM fields. The honor focused on her leadership in the PROMISE Alliance for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP) program, which works to increase the number of future engineering faculty from underrepresented groups.
Dean Ross and Associate Dean Marie desJardins, professor of computer science and electrical engineering, have recently participated in multiple White House events examining the future of computer science education, particularly how giving more kids exposure to computer science early on could diversify the tech workforce of the future.
