PROFESSIONAL CAPSTONE PROJECT2
Technical skills developed during professional exposure:
Summary of the professional exposure:
The main aim of the professional exposure program of the Capstone project was to
develop relevant technical skills for the future network professional while focusing on different
technical topics that were presented during each of the meetups of the professional exposure
event. During the vey first meetup of the event, a detailed presentation was introduced based on a
given situation where we were being asked to imagine ourselves within a situation in a company
where cyber criminals had attacked and were trying to steal information from the company’s data
assets. The very first event led to the introduction of topics related cyberattack and its various
threats. The second meetup of the Capstone project presented the different types of trend
prevalent in cyber security and cyber-attacks, while the third event of the project presented a
whole new concept of the future connectivity related to introduction to 5G network with
consideration to VR gaming and adoption to autonomous car technologies [5]. The final meetup
of the capstone project introduced the concept of emerging technologies and their role of
standards providing a detailed knowledge to emerging digital economy and information systems.
Mapping of useful units during the professional exposure:
While were mainly concerned with the theoretical concepts we had a very little
knowledge on how the professional exposure program will be initiated but as the event started
the main thing that we understood is that communication is one of the vital point in professional
exposure that would help individuals to evaluate various ideas with the industry based people
while communicating with theme about the technologies, their uses and their applications. While
attending the various events of the Capstone project, I gained immense knowledge on how to

initiate a communication with people in the professional field. Besides the events that were being
presented provided me a detailed understanding of the cyber related field while taking major
consideration to the threats in cyber field, modern trends in cyber security and various emerging
cyber attacks that might take place within any industry [1]. The event also provided a basic
understanding of the new kind of technology that has come up with the 5G connectivity and also
the different other kinds of emerging technologies and their role of standards that are followed
within industry professionals.
New technical skills or knowledge gained:
The technical knowledge skills that I gained during the overall Capstone project is mainly
based on cyber security skills, ways to handle the major threats in cyber field and about various
other emerging technologies such as 5G network connectivity and many more [4]. The
knowledge of 5G network connectivity enabled me to understand about the newly emerged
concept of virtual reality gaming and its application in various livestock management and
autonomous car systems [8].
Use of the technical exposure in future:
In future the technical exposure gained during capstone project will help me while
working with any organization related to cyber attack or working with any kind of emerging
technology-based project that will allow me to gain a good career in the field of network
professional.
