An Analysis And Ontology Of Teaching Methods In Cybersecurity Education, Sarah Buckley
An Analysis And Ontology Of Teaching Methods In Cybersecurity Education, Sarah Buckley
LSU Master's Theses
The growing cybersecurity workforce gap underscores the urgent need to address deficiencies in cybersecurity education: the current education system is not producing competent cybersecurity professionals, and current efforts are not informing the non-technical general public of basic cybersecurity practices. We argue that this gap is compounded by a fundamental disconnect between cybersecurity education literature and established education theory. Our research addresses this issue by examining the alignment of cybersecurity education literature concerning educational methods and tools with education literature.
In our research, we endeavor to bridge this gap by critically analyzing the alignment of cybersecurity education literature with education theory. …
Malware And Memory Forensics On M1 Macs, Charles E. Glass
Malware And Memory Forensics On M1 Macs, Charles E. Glass
LSU Master's Theses
As malware continues to evolve, infection mechanisms that can only be seen in memory are increasingly commonplace. These techniques evade traditional forensic analysis, requiring the use of memory forensics. Memory forensics allows for the recovery of historical data created by running malware, including information that it tries to hide. Memory analysis capabilities have lagged behind on Apple's new M1 architecture while the number of malicious programs only grows. To make matters worse, Apple has developed Rosetta 2, the translation layer for running x86_64 binaries on an M1 Mac. As a result, all malware compiled for Intel Macs is theoretically functional …
