The need for responsible use of information and computing/networking systems threads through business processes, research endeavors, and our daily lives. Departments across Purdue offer classes that address information security, privacy, and risk management topics from various perspectives.The following is a list of infosec-related courses that have been offered at Purdue. The first group of courses listed below focus on information security topics specifically. The second group of courses may be considered complementary, in that they address areas of risk management (e.g., physical security and auditing), data collection and transmission, or legal/regulatory practices and records management (which have an information component).
