National Information Assurance Training and Education Center (NIATEC)SANS' Information Security Reading Room - Featuring over 1200 orginal computer security white papers in 70 different categories.Security Certificate Program: Interestingly enough, International Technology University (ITU) has announced plans of offering an IT Security Certificate Program on 8/30/04. This is not your entry-level program either. Candidates seeking entrance into the program are recommended to have two to ten years of IT work experience. To further substantiate my hypothesis of increasing security companies, this article suggests that security services market in North America will reach $9 billion in 2006. Not only that, but security consulting in general is projected to make up 40% of the security services market in 2006.
Statement by Statement of Eugene H. Spafford before Congress - focuses on the important role of university research in information security, and in particular on some of the challenges research faculty face.
