Abstract(in English) In this presentation, the speaker will first discuss his experiences in the cybersecurity human resource development project for students (SECCON), which he has been conducting since 2012, and the cybersecurity education for working professionals (ProSec-IT/SECKUN), which he has been conducting since 2018. The speakers will discuss the cybersecurity education that should be provided at universities and other higher education institutions. First, we overview the actual situation of cybersecurity human resource development in Japan. The human resources produced by these efforts in Japan have high basic skills, but not enough so-called top-level human resources who can produce new technologies or create new services by making full use of existing technologies. The challenge for the future is to develop human resources with basic skills to the top level by raising them to the next level. It is the role of universities to provide students and adults with opportunities to do so. Education on cybersecurity, which needs to be updated with the latest information and directly affects people's business, cannot be provided by universities alone. It is not possible for universities to provide cybersecurity education alone, but it is necessary to collaborate with companies. In addition, it is necessary to clarify the position of cybersecurity as an information technology, including information technology elements and other elements, and to convey the interest of cybersecurity that attracts people who want to learn cybersecurity. The discussion will be focused on what universities should do in order to convey the interest of cybersecurity and its usefulness in contributing to the information society to those who are interested in learning cybersecurity.
