Abstract
Enlightening users’ cybersecurity awareness while learning the impact of cyber-attacks through deliberate attention to your behavior when surfing on public wi-fi. Public wi-fi is synonymous with a lack of privacy. Are people aware of how vulnerable their privacy is if certain safety measures are not taken? Which age group and devices are the most susceptible? This survey will help with what precautions can be taken even for the beginner. Network security awareness and training are vital in today’s age of computers being wiped and stolen personal information. Through our survey, we try to identify if passwords are being used and why users are connecting to hotspots. How may we educate users to take precautions to help prevent these cyber-attacks? How can we make a difference in users’ online security when connecting to public wi-fi? My proposal is by improving users’ cybersecurity awareness while learning the impact of cyber-attacks through deliberate attention to your behavior when surfing on public wi-fi.
Keywords: (public wi-fi, network security, education, training, awareness)
Hi Heath!
I too did my research paper on Cyber security. I think you did really well this semester. Everything you included leading up to the proposal was really informative.
