Technology Security



General Description

I originally wanted this assignment to focus on your computer settings, but I thought addressing technology security would be more relevant and maybe help you avoid getting hacked or accidentally downloading a virus. This assignment is about helping you assess what you know about technology security. You will take an online quiz and then discuss what you learned about your cyber security knowledge and the state of your technology security on your devices.

Instructions

Visit one of the sites below and take the quiz. When you are done taking the quiz, copy and past the results into a word processing document or take a screen shot of your results. You are welcome to find your own quiz if you do not like the selection below. These quizzes cover some of the module information, but there will be topics that are outside of the course content. Your quiz results will not be your grade - I am grading your reflection paragraph only.

  1. How cyber-savvy are you?
  2. Quiz - Are you Safe Online?
  3. Cybersecurity Knowledge Quiz

Output

You will write a paragraph to a page about your quiz results and submit it, along with your quiz results, to Sakai. Include answers to the following questions:

  1. In general, what did you think about your results?
  2. What questions in the quiz were easy for you? Why?
  3. What security measures could you do better (e.g., what did you get wrong on the quiz?)?
