As more people spend more time online, the amount of data they generate grows. If organisations and companies do not have secure information systems then data could get into the wrong hands, with potentially dangerous results. 

This cyber security course is designed to train tomorrow’s security professionals, combining fundamental concepts and principles with exposure to new technologies and solutions. You will gain a practical understanding of key issues relating to the design, analysis and implementation of modern IT security systems.

You can choose to study this course as a part-time intensive option to help you balance your studies with other commitments. You will have classes on Saturdays.

Cyber security is essentially about the protection of information and information systems. On this course, you will learn how to perform this protective role, exploring different security technologies and studying management processes and control systems.  

Our partnership with Amazon Web Services Academy means you will be exposed to new security technologies and solutions. This will help you to gain valuable skills that you can use both during the course and after graduation.
