Abstract

A master program at KSU was started three years ago, and one of the tracks, which has been offered now for a year is "Information Assurance". The major problem with the courses in this track is there is a weakness in the flow of information and knowledge delivery comparing with other universities (with longer experiences). This paper, therefore, looks at the existing knowledge flow, extracting the weaknesses and suggesting a better knowledge flow to enhance the curriculum and student performance. This paper will also justify the change need to be made and look at advance levels of education, such as a Ph.D. in information security.
