Course summary

Cybersecurity, in a nutshell, encompasses the technologies, processes and controls designed to protect systems, networks and data from cyberattacks and unauthorised exploitation. Good cybersecurity involves not only managing the technologies, but the people and the business processes involved with today’s increasingly online world of business and commerce. The course will provide an overview of computing and information security principles to support business needs using current, industry-standard technologies and approaches, with a strong focus on problem solving and the application of digital technologies supported by the underpinning theory to address the needs of the business enterprise in the 21st century.It will develop higher-level technical and analytical skills in the vocational area of digital technologies, which can be applied to a wide range of career routes including information security management, systems and network administration, database administration, web development and programming; along with a range of transferable skills including personal development, research methods and highly regarded ‘soft skills’ such as team working and interpersonal skills.
