Abstract
Cyber security is a field that is becoming more and more important. Yet many universities do not put much focus on teaching this subject to students. This is especially true in liberal arts schools. By creating easier to understand and enjoyable course work in this subject universities could help their students became stronger in their cybersecurity knowledge. Through online courses and labs that allow students to actually test what they learned in a real world simulation students will get a better understanding of the world around them.
