Security in E-Learning (2005)

As e-learning increases in popularity and reach, more people are taking online courses and thus need to understand security issues relevant to this topic. Security for E-Learning discusses typical threats to e-learning projects and will introduce how these issues have been and should be addressed. This knowledge is essential to conduct a security risk analysis effectively, because participants need to be aware of common threats, protection mechanisms and effort/cost issues. Based on the security risk analysis, appropriate preventive measures can be taken, which is thoroughly discussed in this book as well.
