Information technology and network infrastructure are targets for malicious activity regularly.
News reports about data breaches, security violations, privacy failures and other infrastructure failures highlight a growing threat to business and personal information.
This one-year, full-time graduate certificate program at Conestoga College is designed to address this growing threat to our network infrastructure.
It will provide students with the security background in network technologies, computing hardware, operation and protocols to harden and further secure such systems from attack.
Students will learn to identify threats through audits and supporting technical methods and evaluate and develop appropriate policies to support a strong organizational security posture.
This program offers skills that allow graduates to evaluate risk and design infrastructure solutions that keep a business’s code, data and network systems safe.
Students benefit from specialized courses taught by highly qualified industry experts and, as a result, should expect to have classes scheduled up until 8:00 p.m.
