Information Security Management Curriculum Design: A Joint Industry and Academic Effort

In this paper the authors present a curriculum design for Information Security Management, which was synthesized using the inputs from both the industry and academia. The top down curriculum design process carried out in Korea starts with the analysis of the job of an Information Security Manager (ISM), identifies the knowledge elements needed for successfully fulfilling the main responsibilities of the job and finally synthesizes them into seven courses suitable for flexible implementation. Additionally, a lateral occupational analysis of ISM reveals the value-skills (soft-skills) that should be considered in the actual implementation of the curriculum

Synthesis and Activity of Six-Membered Cyclic Alkyl Amino Carbene–Ruthenium Olefin Metathesis Catalysts

Ru–cyclic alkyl amino carbene (Ru–CAAC) olefin metathesis catalysts perform extraordinarily in metathesis macrocyclization and ethenolysis, but previous studies have been limited to the use of five-membered CAAC (CAAC-5) ligands. In this work, we synthesized a different group of ruthenium catalysts with more σ-donating and π-accepting six-membered CAAC (CAAC-6) ligands, and their metathesis activity was probed through initiation studies, ring-closing metathesis (RCM), cross-metathesis, and ethenolysis. These catalysts display higher initiation rates than analogous Ru–CAAC-5 complexes but demonstrate lower activity in RCM and ethenolysis
