“Exploring the World of Spyware: A Cybersecurity Career Presentation” “Effective Presentation Skills: The Importance of Clear Delivery and Engaging Visuals”

Cybersecurity Career Presentation with Information
Topic: Spyware.
Include what is spyware, the definition, overview of spyware with real examples, spyware outcomes, how to 
prevent spyware.
This pathway will allow you take everything you have learned in this course, with additional research, and teach about a specific cybersecurity career path or role. 
The final product is a Power Point presentation that you would present to a local library or your school to inform people interested in a career in cybersecurity and the potential opportunities.  You will actually present it to your class as part of this assignment, but the intended audience is the general public.
