Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

AP Cybersecurity is a broad introduction to the field of cybersecurity that aligns closely with a standard first year college introductory cybersecurity course. Students learn about common threats and vulnerabilities, and how those combine to create risk. Students study the ways that individuals and organizations manage risk, and how risk can be mitigated through a defense-in-depth strategy. Students explore specific vulnerabilities, attacks, mitigations, and detection measures across a variety of domains including physical spaces, computer networks, devices, and data and applications. Throughout the course, students consider the impact of cybersecurity on individuals, organizations, governments, and societies. Students with a qualifying score on the AP Cybersecurity exam will earn an exam voucher for the CompTIA Security+ professional certification exam.
