Cyber Security PG Cert

Organisations around the world have never been more at risk of cyber-attacks, particularly with the greater role that data and technology are playing across all areas of their operations.

This short conversion course introduces you to a number of essential topics such as:

  • key trends and developments within cyber security
  • fundamentals of network security and information security governance principles
  • an inter-disciplinary perspective involving psychology that considers the human factor in cyber security challenges

Delivered completely online, it is easy to develop skills in this sought-after area while continuing in your current role. At the end of your course, there will be the opportunity to progress onto a PG Dip course or the full Masters.
