BSc Cyber Security course is designed to equip you with state-of-the-art
technical knowledge, intellectual know-how, management capabilities and
practical skills that will enable you to succeed in meeting the cyber security
challenges facing modern organisations. In the 21st century, data has become a
necessary commodity, which has value in isolation and more so when viewed as a
larger data set for trends and habits. Data is key to the functioning of modern
business and the protection of this data is key to the ongoing success of the
digital economy. As systems, such as IoT, both generate and consume data grow
in capability and complexity, the need to protect the data created, stored and
transited across public and private networks intensifies. Due to this, the need
for suitably qualified cyber security practitioners has never been greater. This
course will provide you with the knowledge and skills needed by the employers.
Our strong links with industry enable us to teach the most demanding and
up-to-date topics. You will learn state of the art technical knowledge,
intellectual know-how, management capabilities and hands-on practical skills to
