Cybersecurity

Cybersecurity at Saint Vincent is central to the Computing and Information Systems Department: We have been incorporating industry-leading standards and practices into our curriculum for more than three decades.

The Center for Internet Security (CIS) is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to enhancing the cybersecurity readiness and response among public and private sector entities.

Led by the Strategic Technologies Program and the International Security Program, CSIS’s cybersecurity portfolio covers cyber warfare, encryption, military cyber capacity, hacking, financial terrorism, and more.

CISA provides information on cybersecurity best practices to help individuals and organizations implement preventative measures and manage cyber risks.

"The mission of the CVE® Program is to identify, define, and catalog publicly disclosed cybersecurity vulnerabilities. There is one CVE Record for each vulnerability in the catalog. The vulnerabilities are discovered then assigned and published by organizations from around the world that have partnered with the CVE Program. Partners publish CVE Records to communicate consistent descriptions of vulnerabilities. Information technology and cybersecurity professionals use CVE Records to ensure they are discussing the same issue, and to coordinate their efforts to prioritize and address the vulnerabilities."

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania is a leader among states in cybersecurity. Our goals are to prevent and defend against cyberattacks, reduce vulnerability, minimize damage and recovery time and promote awareness and education.

"The Cybersecurity and Information Systems Information Analysis Center (CSIAC) is a component of the U.S. Department of Defense’s (DoD's) Information Analysis Center (IAC) enterprise, serving the defense enterprise of DoD and federal government users and their supporting academia and industry partners."

CISA works with partners to defend against today’s threats and collaborate to build a more secure and resilient infrastructure for the future.

DHS is responsible for overseeing the protection of the.gov domain and for providing assistance and expertise to private sector owners and operators of cyber networks.

Digital Attack Map is a live data visualization of DDoS attacks around the globe, built through a collaboration between Google Ideas and Arbor Networks. The tool surfaces anonymous attack traffic data to let users explore historic trends and find reports of outages happening on a given day.

NIST develops cybersecurity standards, guidelines, best practices, and other resources to meet the needs of U.S. industry, federal agencies and the broader public. Our activities range from producing specific information that organizations can put into practice immediately to longer-term research that anticipates advances in technologies and future challenges.

The NATO Cooperative Cyber Defence Centre of Excellence is a multinational and interdisciplinary cyber defence hub.
