Part of the EMU’s National Security Agency (NSA) Center of Academic Excellence in Information Assurance, and sponsored by the students in information assurance (IA), this program combines a very successful undergraduate and graduate program in information assurance/security with computer forensics and cyber crime/cyber terror investigation. These concentrations comprise a cohesive unit where individuals can study and research the challenges to our country in areas such as information warfare, cyber security, digital incident analysis, Information Systems Risk Management and the emerging science of digital forensics. Business continuity, critical for today’s eCommerce and infrastructure sustainability, is included in the program as well.
