ABSTRACT
This study quantifies and compares the computer security themes found in the ACM Computer Science curricula with the themes addressed in top-ranked computer security re- search conferences over the past six years. On the understanding that current research should help set the agenda for course coverage, we use a strategic diagram to compare the research topics with the curriculum topics and identify specific future directions for the ACM CS curriculum and for computer security courses.
