Program Description

We live in an information society. Nothing could be more important than protecting that information. Today, security software professionals are in high demand. With a Bachelor of Science in Cybersecurity, students can test, implement and configure any new security software and/or technologies, apply sound security policy to their daily jobs, and provide protection and disaster recovery to companies' business systems.

Graduates are able to monitor security systems, including firewalls and intrusion detection systems; create, implement, and oversee security policies; plan disaster recovery; conduct regular compliance audits, and prepare to take the CISSP certification exam.
