There is an increase in the priority of IAS in all levels of Society, which is brought about by technological advances and the increased risks of Cybersecurity attacks on computers in every organization and every home. ―The architecture of the Nation's digital infrastructure, based largely upon the Internet, is not secure or resilient. Without major advances in the security of these systems or significant change in how they are constructed or operated, it is doubtful that the United States can protect itself from the growing threat of cybercrime and state-sponsored intrusions and operations. Our dig-ital infrastructure has already suffered intrusions that have allowed criminals to steal hundreds of millions of dollars and nation-states and other entities to steal intellectual property and sensitive military information . Other intrusions threaten to damage portions of our critical infrastructure. Increased threats to Information and Computer Security through the Internet and other channels are changing the profiles of knowledge/training required of computer scientists and information technology professionals, as well as professionals in other areas (e.g. educators, health care professionals, management professionals). It is the responsibility of Colleges and Universities to prepare the professionals in information security that will defend the nation's information infrastructure. This is the purpose of this concentration. In response to these increased threats, the demand for In-formation Security professionals (in the job market) remains higher than that of other areas of In-formation Technology. To address this need, Felician College offers a B.A. in Computer Information Systems with Concentration in Information Assurance and Security . View more details on Felician College .
