Purpose Statement for Doctor of Engineering in Cybersecurity Analytics
I want to pursue my Ph.D. in cybersecurity analytics in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at The George Washington University. I am convinced that my background in information security and engineering, experience in cybersecurity analytics and research, and professional aspiration make me a strong candidate for the program.
As a cybersecurity professional, I have the opportunity to influence the direction of my company. I can help choose technologies to be used, design new protocols, and write new software. In this role, I have the opportunity to help improve the security of my company.
I had to constantly keep up with the latest research in cybersecurity and apply the best practices to our platform. I attended the BlackHat conference in Las Vegas and Defcon in San Francisco, where I learned about the latest cybersecurity trends and threats. I also attended the annual Security Analyst Summit, where I learned about the latest cybersecurity research.
I have also been given the opportunity to help improve the security of organizations that have been hacked. In these cases, I can help organizations help themselves and learn from their mistakes.
