Cybercrime is one of the fastest-growing forms of crime. Each day across the globe, cybercriminals exploit the speed, convenience and anonymity of the internet to commit a range of criminal activities, including:
Phishing scams, password cracking and ransomware deployment.
But while cybercrime is on the rise, more than three million jobs will go unfilled over the next couple of years because of a lack of skilled graduates in cybersecurity.
Macquarie's Bachelor of Cyber Security has been developed in consultation with cybersecurity experts from the government and industry.
You’ll gain the skills to harden organisations against cyber threats by building awareness of cybercriminals' motivations, mindsets, capabilities, and abilities.
You'll also develop your expertise in information security and data privacy, offensive security, digital forensics, applied cryptography, secure coding, and artificial intelligence.
