Description / Abstract

Submitted to the Department of Mathematics and Computer Science in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Science

The project was completed through an internship at Woodgrain Inc. in their cybersecurity department. Responsibilities included designing, generating support for, and running Woodgrain’s first annual cybersecurity training. This incorporated selecting the training modules, building the communication that would be sent out to employees, generating support with the lead team, and keeping other teammates up to date with the progress of the project. The responsibilities also entailed running the training itself, which involved creating the training in our education tool, answering questions from employees, and troubleshooting any problems that occurred throughout the process. Ultimately the training exceeded its goal of a seventy-five percent completion rate. Because of the success of this project the annual training has been expanded to also include new hires throughout the year. Additionally, the same format is being utilized to send out a security awareness proficiency assessment to gain better insight into how Woodgrain employees view cybersecurity. Finally, annual training will be continued each year, although the training modules will be changed for next year.
