CHOSEN TOPIC: CyberSecurity Frameworks
Submissions will be scored for plagiarism by TurnItIn so make sure you put the paper in your own words. Unfortunately, Turnitin does not offer a student interface to check you work before submitting. However, if you do a Google search for "free plagiarism checker", you'll find a few options that you can use if you'd like.
Part 2
Part 2 should provide a look at the current state of your topic. You can include things like:
· What is the current technology regarding this topic?
· What are the exploits against this topic?
· Who are threat actors who create these exploits?
· How is it defended?
· How successful is the defense strategy?
· What are some recent examples of breach regarding this topic?
Length
You should be shooting for a minimum of 1,000 words in 12 Times New Roman text. Bibliography and other supplemental materials do not count towards the word count.
Format: You do not need a title page, but you must fully document your sources in APA format
including in-text citations. You must select high-quality research sources. If you have any questions about whether a source is “high-quality”, please ask me before you rely on it. You may choose to use any format that you choose for your research paper so long as it is easily readable. You will submit the research paper in Canvas as a Microsoft Word document or Adobe PDF.

Instructor Guide and Notes
• Sharing and discussing your Rubric with students is a good idea so that you can all come to a common understanding of what is expected
for the assignment and how students’ work will be graded. Students should be able to visibly see a link to the Rubric at the beginning of
the assignment in web-enhanced, hybrid, or fully online courses if a course management system is used (e.g., eCollege, Sakai, etc.).
• Rubrics make the process of grading more objective, consistent, and quicker (in the long run).
• Rubrics can also be used when reviewing any grade appeals.
• When grading:
o Pick three students’ papers at random and “practice” grading them using the Rubric so you get a better feel for it.
o Focus on the “Exemplary” mastery level (category) on each criterion before the other mastery levels (i.e., Accomplished,
Developing, Beginning-Unsatisfactory) when evaluating and grading each student’s paper. The Exemplary mastery level
articulates the highest learning outcome.
• If the rubric doesn’t do what you want, adjust it, as needed. For example, modify mastery descriptions to add “context” for your
research paper assignment, if needed. However, be careful to maintain a similar “weighting” of criteria (i.e., “content” should be a
significantly higher weighting than the “mechanics” of the assignment). Also, be aware that the “points” assigned for each mastery level
have been mathematically calculated and proportioned as follows: overall, Exemplary is ~ 90-100%; Accomplished is ~80-89%;
Developing is ~ 70-79%; and Beginning-Unsatisfactory is ~ 0-69%.
• This Rubric will work with both “percentage-based” grading systems and “points-based” grading systems. For percentage-based grading
systems, it is important that the overall points add up to 100 points to work properly with the Gradebook in the course management
system (e.g., eCollege, Sakai, etc.).
• It is recommended that instructors include a “model” of an “Exemplary” paper so students have a frame of reference before undertaking
the assignment.
