Information Security
This course offers a comprehensive foundation in information security, combining theory with practical application. Learners will explore key areas such as cybersecurity principles, threat modelling, network security, access control, encryption, incident response, and governance. Through interactive labs and real-world case studies, students develop a strong understanding of how to identify, prevent, and respond to cyber threats in enterprise settings. The course also covers regulatory frameworks like ISO 27001, GDPR, and NIST, and highlights the importance of aligning security measures with business continuity and operational resilience.

Overview
Structured over 10 to 12 weeks, the course begins with an introduction to computer hardware and software, operating systems, and basic networking. Students progress into system administration, user account management, and foundational cybersecurity practices. Key topics also include troubleshooting workflows, cloud computing concepts, using productivity tools, and working within IT service management (ITSM) frameworks. Real-world scenarios and practical labs give students exposure to tools like command line interfaces, ticketing systems (e.g., JIRA or Freshdesk), and basic scripting. The course culminates in a final project simulating real IT support tasks and systems deployment, allowing learners to apply their skills in a realistic IT setting.
Career Opportunities
Over 12 structured weeks, the course walks learners through the fundamentals of modern information security. Students begin by learning core cybersecurity concepts and the anatomy of common attacks. From there, they develop practical skills in securing networks, configuring firewalls, implementing cryptography, and managing user identities. The course introduces tools such as Wireshark, Metasploit, and security scanners for hands-on experience. Learners will also simulate real-world scenarios like breach response and risk assessments. Weekly labs, group discussions, and guided tasks ensure applied learning, with a capstone project tying together all knowledge in a practical, evaluative security scenario.
Graduate Benefits
