Master Program in Cybersecurity, Infrastructure, Computer Software

Cybersecurity consists of evaluating and defending oneself against the incoming and outgoing risks of a computer system by considering all its software and technological hardware bricks. Admittedly, an IT solution is used to improve or provide new services, but at the same time it gives potential attackers, with various motivations, new possibilities to access, consult, modify or damage sensitive information.

As part of this major in cybersecurity, engineering students will acquire expertise and specialization in Cybersecurity Infrastructure & Software (CIL).

By the end of this program, the Cybersecurity engineer will know how to:

• Design, apply and maintain infrastructures to uphold the goals of the company’s security policy.
• Evaluate the IT security risks encountered using infrastructure.
• Securely manage, develop and evolve the infrastructure.
• Define and implement the infrastructure service continuity plan for a company in case of attack.

The Security curriculum prepares majors for multiple career options such as: 

• Expert in pentests (penetration testing)
• Post auditor (Forensic criminalist, Compromise analysis)
• Cybersecurity developer
• Cybersecurity architect
• Cybersecurity consulting engineer
