1. Security Architecture - This topic falls under the Introduction to Cyber Security
(Chapter 1) as it involves understanding the foundational concepts of securing systems
and networks.
2. Encryption - Encryption is a part of various chapters, especially in Ethical Hacking and
Social Engineering (Chapter 3) regarding securing data, but it can also relate to Cyber
Forensics and Auditing (Chapter 4) when discussing securing information during
investigations.
3. Email Security - Email Security is generally discussed in the context of Cyber Forensics
and Auditing (Chapter 4) due to the need for securing communication channels and
investigating email-related cybercrimes.
4. Response Codes - This topic might be more aligned with Cyber Forensics and Auditing
(Chapter 4) as response codes can be relevant in forensic investigations and audits.
5. Matrix Mining - Matrix Mining might be associated with Threats to Information
Systems (Chapter 2), involving the analysis of various data sets to identify potential
threats or patterns.
6. Handshake Protocol and SSL Protocol Stack - These topics are typically part of
Security Architecture (Chapter 1) and Email Security (Chapter 4) as they involve
understanding protocols used to secure communication channels.
7. Threats to Information Systems - Clearly related to the section on Hackers and Cyber
Crimes (Chapter 2), focusing on identifying and understanding various threats that can
affect information systems.
8. Information Assurance - This concept falls under the Ethical Hacking and Social
Engineering (Chapter 3) section, emphasizing the importance of ensuring the integrity
and availability of information.
9. Firewalls - Firewalls are a key component of Security Architecture (Chapter 1),
discussing how networks and systems are protected by controlling incoming and
outgoing network traffic.
10. Backup - This topic is crucial in the context of Cyber Forensics and Auditing (Chapter 4),
emphasizing the importance of data backup for forensic investigations and system
recovery after a cyber incident.
11. Cybercrime - Cybercrime is a broad topic that spans across multiple chapters, primarily
within Hackers and Cyber Crimes (Chapter 2), but it's also relevant in discussing Cyber
Ethics and Laws (Chapter 5) concerning legal aspects and consequences.
