Abstract
This article is a research study for designing, experimenting, and developing a good practice of teaching curriculum in cybersecurity, which is a special course for the teaching of the Royal Police Cadet Academy. Currently, the education program for police cadets is in public administration. There are still not enough courses related to cybersecurity. Therefore, this research has an important objective to promote and develop a new teaching model and learning curriculum in cybersecurity for police cadets to have sufficient knowledge for performing their duties in cybercrime cases after graduation. The course structure is divided into two parts: 1) the study of necessary knowledge of computer science for cybersecurity learning, and 2) the study of cybersecurity principles, which can also be divided into the knowledge of offensive cybersecurity which consists of programming for ethical hacking, network and machine exploitation, web exploitation and pwnable, and the knowledge of defensive cybersecurity that consists of reverse engineering, digital forensic, cryptography and the application of OSINT tools. The teaching activities will be game-based learning which is called CTF or capture the flag. The research study found that the samples of police cadets have significantly increased their cybersecurity skills after completing the course and they can show the performance and potential in cybersecurity at the military, national, and international levels.
