  • Abstract
    Information system security is critical to meet the growing technological needs for the industry. Information security education is necessary to support such need. However security education depends on real project context. In this article, we address the educational challenges in teaching information and software system security by presenting an education framework governed by context-driven action research used for developing modules in specific regular and distance learning programs. We differentiate issues relating to both regular and distance learning program.
