COMPLIANCE SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT PROBLEM: IMPORTANCE AND POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS AbstractSuccessful modern software development often requires compliance with both ethical andlegal standards. This creates the “computer compliance software problem”. That isdefined and discussed together with reasons for its importance. Some possible solutionapproaches are defined and discussed, with some related examples. There have been a fewwell documented past software disasters, and there exist recent but undocumented softwaredisasters, but there are reasons for hope that progress is being made toward solving thecompliance software development problem and some are briefly discussed. Hope resides ingreater software knowledge

Course content may range from cryptography, andthe mathematical principles and algorithms used to protect data to system-level protocols 4 .Additionally, the goals of courses vary dramatically, such as teaching cybersecurity as practicalvocation skills, as good engineering practices, or as academic theories.The methods used to teach these courses are just as varied as their goals. Some courses focus onlaboratory-based, experimental operations 6,14 . Others are lecture-based and involve the reviewand discussion of literature, and still others are challenge based courses

, programming, testing ofvarious applications installed, as well as ethical hacking and incident investigation in thevirtualized Linux environments. All these will provide students with in-depth knowledge andskills in cloud computing and information assurance. More important, research results can benaturally integrated with the existing Computer Information Technology curriculum, whichcan benefit students in the CIT program at Purdue University Calumet (PUC) and students inthe programs that have partnerships with PUC in the Midwest.6. ConclusionIn this paper, a systematic approach has been proposed to develop the forensics readiness tofight against attacks and inside activities committed in virtualized Linux environments. Thisapproach focuses on

. The linking of the CS1 problem-solving course in an LC withEG1 further integrates narrative elements into computer problem-solving courses; thisintegration should result in improved and more transferable computer problem-solving skills.2.3 Introduction to Computer Systems (CS0)In this foundational course for Computer Systems, students engage in an overall inspection of theworld of computing. As part of this course, students also learn introductory concepts related to theinner workings of the computer, such as operating systems, networks, and database systems. Thisoverview of machine architecture, software development, data organization, ethics, computersecurity, and the theory of computing is presented to introduce students to the key threads
