Press Release Body = Eric Salveggio, Virginia College Online\’s IT Program Director
and Chief Security Officer, recently edited a cyber security textbook. Salveggio is
also working on a test bank to accompany the textbook, which will be published by
Pearson.
The textbook, which teaches principles of cybersecurity such as computer forensics

Cybersecurity program instructs students in the secure management of LAN, WLAN, and
WAN systems. Through hands-on simulations and labs, students learn about cyber

transfer of data, as well as protecting against Internet fraud and hacking.
Editing textbooks and writing test material is not the only tribute to Salveggio\’s
expertise. “Our Masters of Cybersecurity [program] has folks from the Army,
Department of Homeland Security, and corporate security either investigating it or
taking the course,” said Salveggio.
