Master Program in Cybersecurity and Cloud

The massive development of the cloud, the hybridization of Information Systems (IS) in companies and telecommunications (5G), and the result of Artificial Intelligence generate new attack vectors. It is critical to rethink traditional IS security approaches to consider paradigm shifts and new architectures better as new exposure channels present unknown risks.

Efrei’s Cybersecurity and Cloud Major trains cybersecurity engineers capable of comprehensively understanding the security issues within an organization, particularly those related to deploying architectures and services in the Cloud.

Goals :

• Design and administer public, private, and hybrid cloud infrastructures to meet corporate security policy objectives and improve operational efficiency
• Conduct penetration tests to detect security vulnerabilities, particularly at the level of a hybrid infrastructure or fully hosted in the Cloud
• Automate tasks and security tests when performing DevOps operations to improve the quality of services provided and ensure the security of company data and assets

Learned Skills:

• Formalize security needs
• Develop secure Cloud or Hybrid architectures
• Perform audits and intrusion tests, particularly in the context of hybrid architectures
• Automate tasks and security tests when deploying a service, an application, network in the CloudDesign and administer public, private, and hybrid cloud infrastructures to meet corporate security policy objectives and improve operational efficiency

• Design and administer public, private and hybrid Cloud infrastructures in line with the objectives of the company’s security policy
• Assess an organization’s IT security risks, particularly those related to its cloud-hosted infrastructure
• Securely manage the development and evolution of cloud-hosted infrastructure and services
• Be able to conduct penetration tests, in particular at the level of a hybrid infrastructure or wholly hosted in the Cloud
• Automation of tasks and security tests when performing DevOps operations

Pedagogy by projects
In M1 and M2, students carry out two cross-disciplinary projects that call on many skills: techniques, project management, team management, setting up a business plan, communication skills to defend their project, etc.
