Student Work

Introsec is an informational program that introduces middle and early high school students to the realm of cybersecurity. This web application consists of a series of interactive gamified labs that help students develop skills that are relevant to their personal cybersecurity and the broader industry. According to security firm ProtectWise, 67 percent of millennials have never taken a cybersecurity class (Delaney, 2018). Based on our research, there is a need for a quick and interactive course to introduce middle and high school level students to the basics of cybersecurity and gauge their interest in the field. Introsec provides a fast, fun and effective way to get hands-on experience without needing to commit to a long camp or series of courses. We have created a functioning web application that provides students with basic information about aspects of cybersecurity through multiple scenario-based games.
