Applied Cybersecurity Ethics: Privacy, AI, and Emerging Threats

Cybersecurity professionals frequently find themselves at the center of moral and ethical debates about what they do and how they go about doing it. Tools like big data, artificial intelligence, and biohacking are widely used now, even as the ethical implications have yet to be sorted out.

The distinction between morals, ethics, and laws in the cybersecurity space is a topic that applies broadly across the field, and this course is aimed at helping you round out the knowledge that will make you a more effective and successful cybersecurity professional. Instructor Jerod Brennen details the cybersecurity challenges we face today, as well as the challenges of the future—from the use of AI and data, to topics like quantum computing and moral disengagement, as well as how to foster an ethical cybersecurity culture.
