The panelists will demonstrate a consistency of purpose but also a wide variety of approaches among the projects selected and the courses in which they can be used. The schools represented vary from medium to large state universities to a private college to a large independent institute. The projects to be discussed vary across a number of dimensions. They range from low-level programming exercises (e.g. buffer overflow) to conceptual policy development and implementation (e.g. password policies). The projects deal with computer security from the point of view of the system administrator, the security officer, and the programmer. They touch on a number of other computer science topics, including networking, database systems, and software development, and thus have potential applicability in a variety of courses.
