TCP Three-way Handshake as a Pedagogical Tool
The TCP three-way handshake can be used as a pedagogical tool when teaching network security in an introductory course in information security. I use it as a common theme that runs through various network security topics so that it is easier for students to grasp new concepts while reinforcing old knowledge. This paper describes the rationale for so doing and shares examples of some learning tools I created in this respect.
The Colloquium™ recognizes that the protection of information and infrastructures that are used to create, store, process, and communicate information is vital to business continuity and security. The goal of The Colloquium™ is to work together to define current and emerging requirements for information assurance education and to influence and encourage the development and expansion of information assurance curricula, especially at the graduate and undergraduate levels.
