**Reference ID:** CALIGN-2025-COM398-427
**Date of Analysis:** 2025-05-14

This report summarizes the findings of a curriculum alignment analysis conducted on the document titled 'COM398: Network Security - Fall 2025', which is a Textbook Content Overview for Computer Science. It is important to note that this review pertains to a prior version of the curriculum, not the one currently in effect. The intended audience is within the specified educational context, spanning from grade level 14 to 14.
The curriculum is segmented into 2 distinct learning units. As an example, the unit 'Network Security' is projected to require approximately 22 instructional hours. It focuses on core concepts such as database, data structures. A key objective in this section (Ref: OBJ-01-01) is for students to ' analyze the concept of data structures.', which is categorized at the 'Create' cognitive level. Supporting resources include a Journal Article titled 'Mandatory grid-enabled array'. Its public accessibility is noted as True. Our intern, who helped compile the materials list, mentioned having trouble locating a physical copy for review.

**Identified Deficiencies:**
A primary concern raised during the analysis was a gap related to 'outdated_material': Insufficient focus on networking application. This particularly impacts objectives like OBJ-02-01. 

**Interdisciplinary Opportunities:**
An opportunity for cross-curricular linkage with Mathematics was identified, particularly around the topic of 'Discrete Mathematics'. </data>
