Cyber Security is an essential aspect of today’s information systems. The Cyber Security and Ethical Hacking  major aims to develop graduates with skills in  network security, cloud security, information security, in the ethical and legal aspects of activities in cyber space. With the widespread use of networked systems, protecting these systems from various attacks is more important than ever. Students apply system security knowledge and security protocols, from basic cryptography algorithms to their applications, in computer systems, networked systems, blockchain technologies and crypto currencies. Students  learn how to analyse security vulnerabilities and to implement cybersecurity solutions using ethical hacking techniques and following legal and professional standards.
