Overview

The MSc Cyber Security and Technology program offers individuals a clear path to a successful career in the fast-moving and exciting field of cybersecurity. The program has been developed by leading researchers at the Cardiff Centre for Cyber Security Research in close collaboration with industry experts from PwC. The aim of the program is to provide participants with an in-depth understanding of the constantly evolving cyber threat landscape and the various cyberattacks that target operating systems, computer networks, and web applications. It helps individuals develop a solid understanding of the underlying technologies, their vulnerabilities, and effective methods for securing them. Alongside covering the theoretical foundations of computer science and cyber security, the program also includes a significant practical component for hands-on application. The program teaches a range of security techniques and methods, including but not limited to network traffic analysis, network enumeration, port scanning, network segmentation, prevention of injection attacks, prevention of common web application attacks such as injection attacks, XSS, and CSRF, as well as secure configuration of cloud-based IT environments. Participants will also gain skills in conducting digital and network forensic investigations and analysis using modern forensics tools and software packages. Additionally, the program provides insights into the human factors that influence cyber security, privacy concerns, and cyber security legislation and regulations.
