Code(Credit) : CUTM1688(4-0-0)

Course Objectives

This course focuses on two aspects of Cyber Security: analysis and assessment of risk plus how to minimize it, and, how to extract and use digital information from a wide range of systems and devices. The course is structured so that all students cover the same introductory material, but then choose to specialize in either Cyber Security or Digital Forensics. Any aforesaid science graduate who requires keen interest & knowledge of IT programming languages with basic knowledge of math beyond calculus.

Learning Outcomes

  • Understand the concept of business continuity
  • Learn the importance of a BCP(business continuity planing)
  • See how load balancing maintains business continuity
  • Discover how a DCP(Disaster recover plan) is a second line of defense
  • Learn how to choose the right fail over solution
