Round Trip Time and Hop Count for Geolocation in Request Tracing and Classification; Social Media Manipulation and the Impact on Digital Security 231 views

The underlying theme shared by my technical proposal and STS research paper is the concern for digital security in a world that becomes increasingly digitized every day. While this digitization comes with countless benefits and those should not be discounted, it is also important to address the threats that accompany building our world upon a complex combination of fiber optic cables and vast computer networks. As society continues to become more and more reliant on computers to communicate and do business, the attack surface, or opportunity for exploitation of those systems, increases. While digital security is a multifaceted topic with many subtopics deserving of discussion, this capstone focuses on two specifically: packet filtering and classification in computer networks for my technical proposal and the impact of social media manipulation on digital security for my STS research paper.
