Abstract
The need to increase education in digital security is becoming a prevalent issue as the arms race to secure cloud storage and vulnerabilities of critical data is survival of the fittest. Digital security is a common theme in the news again and again, as many involved in the new age of the IoT (internet of things) have an understanding in the process of storing and retrieving data from their devices, the security of that data should also come into question. As IT (information technology) students engage in coursework to understand the propensity of their digital actions online, IT students are not the only ones affected, security is a multidisciplinary issue. Students digital citizenship and education in their personal security will be explored in this review of literature.
