to meet 7 outcomes.Outcome 4 states “Design appropriate solutions in one or more application domains usingsoftware engineering approaches that integrate ethical, social, legal, and economic concerns”. Itis through this outcome we expect students to design solutions that address ethical, social, legal,security, and economic concerns. The importance of security in the curriculum guidelines can benoted from the change in SE education Knowledge Areas. In the 2004 Curriculum Guidelines forUndergraduate Degree Programs in Software Engineering [4] security was listed as an area ofstudy. However in the 2014 Curriculum Guidelines for Undergraduate Degree Programs inSoftware Engineering [5] there is now an increase in the visibility of software
