Abstract :
Securing computer systems is an ongoing task that requires involvement of users, system administrators, and developers. There has been a lot of discussion of embedded computer security in the computer science curriculum, but that is insufficient. It´s necessary to provide training to keep workers up to date, and to educate them. In this article, the authors discuss the workforce, and the fact that a majority of those working in computing fields don´t have a formal computer science degree. What do they know, and what do employers need to know about the gaps in the employee´s knowledge?
