Cyber Security and Networking

About the Course of Study

Cyber Security

In the Computer and Information Systems Security/Information Assurance program, students examine the core concepts and terminology of cyber security and information assurance, integrating the importance of user involvement, network architecture, threats, and security; operational and system security; cryptography; contingency planning; application, data, and host security; access control and identity management; and a broad range of other topics. Upon completion of the two courses, students will be prepared to earn nationally-recognized industry certifications.

Networking

Students in the Networking program will perform networking tasks commonly performed by systems administrators, network administrators, network engineers and related careers. Students manage hardware and software network components including IP configuration, setting up wireless and wired networks, managing networks, basic network security, software updates, hardware upgrades and network protocols. Students will learn about configuring and maintaining networks in home and corporate environments. Upon completion of the two courses, students will be prepared to earn nationally-recognized industry certifications.
