(University of Batna 2, 2023) GOUDJIL Kahina
This thesis aims to study the progressive development of U.S. National security since 1940, and the prominent threat that comprises its national security policy in the twenty-first century. This work is devoted to diagnosing the U.S. national security development, new tactics and policies, the primary initiatives employed to handle the problem of a new emerging threat of cybersecurity, and its consequences on American national policy. The type of this research is an Exploratory Descriptive Qualitative research EDQ, it examines the advent of a new field of Cyber security as the rising danger to national and international security. It investigates the relationship between agencies and the educational system to mitigate the threat. To analyze and evaluate education's role in creating a cybersecurity workforce to overcome U.S. national security threats, a comprehensive statistical analysis was conducted to determine the effectiveness of higher education in addressing the shortage of skilled workers in cybersecurity, and the extent to which it has reduced U.S. vulnerabilities to cybercrimes. The work will demonstrate if expanding cybersecurity in higher education has contributed to developing a pipeline of human cybersecurity capital. Despite the efforts that programs in higher education have made, the study’s findings show that the United States is still susceptible and vulnerable to cybercrime. Higher education has helped offset the problem of labor shortage, but it has not been enough to eradicate or diminish the country’s cyber risks. As the results illustrate, higher education played and still plays a crucial role in bridging the skills gap in the cybersecurity sector, but it could not address the country’s cyber risks and diminish the country’s vulnerability to cyberattacks.
