These online interactive lessons are provided as a resource for faculty and teachers to incorporate into their cybersecurity classes. They are designed to help students grasp difficult concepts by interacting with the content, navigating through pages, selecting options, completing activities, and answering questions. Self-assessments are often provided, either at the end of an interactive lesson or on a separate web page.

The interactive lessons on NCyTE.net have been developed through funding from National Science Foundation grants to Brookdale Community College in Lincroft, New Jersey, and Whatcom Community College in Bellingham, Washington.
