The Issue
• Politics
• IS classes are considered “vocational”
• “Vocational” classes are by definition not Gen Ed

Spy Software Demo
• I begin a lecture with PowerPoint• I wait for students to surreptitiously
begin using their PC for “other” things
• I initialize NetTutor – Connect to a student PC– Bring up his PC to full-screen on Data
Projector– Wait for him to notice– It always makes the point

Group Work Example
• National Enquirer Article– Premise: You are a reporter for
the National Enquirer– Your group must write an article
about the MOD and LOD hackers• Include graphics• Exaggeration is OK
– The results: very creative

Hacking Scenarios• I have 7 different scenarios; Virus attack, web site
attack, malicious email, home computer attacked, and
• Scenario 6: Your Office is raided by Police• You come into work on Monday. You are a senior
officer at the company. You notice several police cars are in front of the building. When you go to your desk you hear that police have raided your company! They have confiscated the email server and the file server and the database server. They have also confiscated the Internet Usage logs. What is your reaction to this? Is there anything you would worry about? What would you do?
• Scenario 5 is the same, but from the worker’s viewpoint.

Role-Playing with Heckling
• Questions:– What is your experience with
hacking?– Do you see hackers as a positive
or a negative force?– Whose responsibility is security?– Should there be more/less
government regulation?– Any other comments?
