All case studies have been developed to provide a thorough and meaningful application of information security concepts.  Each case study contains the following:

• Overview: a brief synopsis of the case topics, the organization, and the major concepts addressed in the case study;
• Background: a description of the organization, including its mission, history, size, and structure, which provides the foundation and context for the case study;
• Information Security Subject Treatment: an in-depth description of the case study topic and related information security concepts;
• Final Comments:  concluding remarks that summarize the current status of the organization and outline future directions;
• Endnotes: a list of resources used in developing the case study;
• Case Study Questions; a list of ten questions intended to measure student understanding and foster critical thinking.  Some of the solutions require computer work, some require further exploration and research, and all require thought;
• Key Terms: a list of key terms used in the case study, along with their definitions; and
• Appendices: included as needed in some case studies to provide additional coverage of case-related information security topics.
