postgraduate diploma Security in Computer and Systems Engineering

The trend to offer services and store information digitally has many benefits, such as cost savings. However, it presents a major problem: security. It is relatively easy to access these files when they are stored on the Internet. This is why organizations around the world invest large amounts of resources in protecting their data. Especially those that by their nature are susceptible to attacks, such as banks or governments themselves. In this regard, TECH has prepared a program with the most up-to-date information on cybersecurity issues. Defining the parts of a security plan, detailing the main entry points for attacks and offering a wide range of resources to stop them. In addition, the contents are available to the student in different formats. Thus, adjusting to their preferences and favoring the assimilation of information.

Description

At TECH, we teach you to think like an attacker would think so that the security solutions proposed are 100% effective"

An example of the need for this professional profile can be found precisely in the banking sector. According to cybersecurity company Trend Micro, it is detecting a 1,318% year-on-year increase in ransomware attacks, a malware that hijacks information and demands payment of a ransom to recover the data. This explains the high demand for qualified professionals to deal with attacks.

For this reason, TECH's agenda covers cybersecurity from different angles. With the intention of offering optimal learning. The types of threats will be defined, providing the keys to perform risk analysis and security plans. In addition, specific topics have been set aside to address network, communications and data security.

The final part of the cybersecurity syllabus will focus on security in different operating systems, specifically Linux and Windows. As well as threat detection and response, and cloud security.

A topic related to software engineering has also been provided. It will deal with the application of software to IT, project management and IT methodologies, Big Data or IoT, among other concepts. Along with a specific module for IT governance, very useful for the corporate environment.

The program will be taught entirely online and without schedules, only a device with an internet connection will be required. In addition, students will have access to the syllabus in different formats, so that they can select the one that best suits their needs. Thus, promoting family and work reconciliation and facilitating the assimilation of learning.

Thanks to the techniques provided by our instructors you will learn how to create robust firewalls for files as sensitive as customer databases"
