Abstract

This paper describes an undergraduate course in computer security that has a strong ethical component. Ethical and related security topics are interwoven. The emphasis is on the kind of research that computer scientists and information technologists are conducting in order to address the fundamental problems in computer security. There is also a great emphasis on encouraging student creativity.
